Reliable car shop

Swannanoa, NC

This is where my mechanic(s) hang out, waiting for me to bring my '96 Toyota in to keep it running.  And they tell me if I take care of it, it will run forever.  (I'm not sure I want to drive it quite that long, but I've had it since 2000 already)  At least the next owner can know that it's been driven by a little (?) old lady!

Thought for the day:


Be still, and the world is bound to turn herself inside out to entertain you. Everywhere you look, joyful noise is clanging to drown out quiet desperation.

And here's a shot of spring, just in case you're turned off by pics of auto shops (well, they are a necessary part of life)

  1. Beautiful blossoms! We have no spring here yet. It was 30 degrees this morning and trying to snow.

  2. A Toyota is a fantastic make of car or truck. Right now I have a Toyota Tacoma 2004 and plan on keeping it for another ten years. I take good care of it and you seem to also as you have a good mechanic. -- barbara

So glad to have your comments...whatever they may be. I'm one who likes to reply sometime or another, so others will see that; or you might happen back sometime and see what conversation might have started.
