A tent in the house?

Yep. My friend Walter gave Flower a tent and sleeping bag. We set it up in her room today and she is loving it. She's cuddled up in the sleeping bag, reading books and eating snacks. What fun!


Walter is one of the most generous people I have ever met! He is the painter here for the apartments so we met him when we moved here. He will do anything for anyone. He found out about the troubles with the bus when I had my little mishap. We told him how it had been stalling. He took a look and discovered we had a fuel leak. A bad one. One that he was surprised hadn't caused a fire yet. Nice. He also said it's been that way for awhile. He discovered it in about two seconds it was that obvious. We are not happy with a certain automotive shop in Meridian who should have noticed it the two or three times we took it in there for the same stalling. Oh well. We won't be going there again. So once Walter figured out there was a fuel leak, unbeknownst to us, he went on E*bay and ordered the hoses and then showed up one day and said, "Let's fix it!". Never asking for a dime or taking what we offered. He sells used items on E*bay so he's always got cool things. It seems just about once a week he shows with some fun little thing for Flower. He's given her a fun flashlight and alphabet letters for the fridge. Seriously. Such a nice guy.
The tent is a BIG hit!
