Good morning!!!!

PJ, I see those Souls and they look "fun".

They certainly market them that way. I don't know about "fun," but this one has been a very good car to me. It just rolled over 123K miles yesterday, and no mechanical issues yet with it. It's surprisingly roomy inside, and has been more than adequate as a musician's vehicle. I can even fit my upright acoustic bass in it.

My Wife has a '12 Sorento, and had an '04 Sorento before that, and a Sedona minivan and Sephia sedan before that. They seem to make pretty decent vehicles.

J, I hope your wife feels better soon. I always hated busting a flip flop far from home.

Kyle- Thanks for the + wishes. Wifey hides flip-flops all around the house, in suitcases, carryons, and probably has a pair or two hidden in the car and truck. A catastrophic failure of a flip-flop occurs and magically there is another pair on her feet. If she can't find a hoarded pair on a trip it is an immediate detour to a local "flip-flop" store. When we bought this place +30 years ago there was a lone sole of a blown out flip-flop laying in the lower field. I'll bet it is or pieces of it are still there even after repeated mowings.

Wife is feeling sore and inconvenienced and probably looking forward to my supervision

You can get a attachment that snaps into end of wand. I have one that works very well.
High Pressure Soap Applicator
I got mine from Amazon. Lots of choices.

That thing is cool. Thanks for sharing.

Jay, hope your wife recovers soon. But I do have to chuckle. I do wear shoes when off island but otherwise maybe half dozen times a year. Usually barefoot or in my slippahs unless a serious task requiring sure footing or protection.

Wife just called and cancelled her cortisone shot, asked them to save it for next time The good news being she feels good enough to do so. I know she isn’t pain free, but at a tolerable stage.

Bleach can damage seals in your PW. This is what I use.

Amazon.com: MATCC Snow Foam Lance 3 PSI Foam Wash Gun 3/8 Connector High Pressure Washer 1L Bottle Foam Cannon Car Cleaning: Automotive

I can put bleach in it or Krud Kutter.

Another option. Thanks

Dave- I assumed that there are a few flip-flop wearing posters here which helped me restrain myself about ranting about the inherent risks of wearing flip-flops. I suspect flip-flop and clog making manufacturers are heavily financed by the orthopedic industries. For a person who has no dress shoes I have a wide assortment of task specific footwear appropriate for the anticipated conditions, and I do not own flip-flops.

Sophie's decision to cancel her scheduled cortisone shot takes courage. My highest respects for your wife and you. Good luck.

Ellen drives a Soul, nice and roomy for its size. I drive a Borrego which is s totally different animal, though a KIA also.

JB, I wouldn’t bet on the supervisor part, but I hope she’s better quickly.

This is what I use for bleaching the buildings.
