Wife says, "You know your daughter... we're going to baby sit while she goes to town so maybe you should park over a lane." I just backed up 2 car lengths (long driveway) to give her time to see and avoid. The daughter - who apparently relies on a fancy rear radar system that apparently doesn't work - managed to whack our bumper. Her bumper was unhurt. $800 later....... Next time over I parked down the block. And then complained loudy about the long walk. :) Craig Jungers Moses Lake, WA www.nwkayaking.net *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
