And Just like that! He changes His Mind

On Sunday traveling home from the farm Jon and I ran over a rock. It banged pretty hard under the van, and we did turn the car around to inspect our attacker, then drove the almost 100 miles home. As we pulled into the garage we could smell burning oil. Jon quickly realized, judging from the oil trail left in our driveway,that we had put a hole in our oil pan, a gash about as long as your thunb, and pulled the van back out if the garage. We put a bucket under the van and collected almost a full gallon of oil. The mechanic quoted us $225.00 to fix it. So we mummbled and murmmered about doing all of the good thing we were suppose to such as watching conference, paying our tithing, I even did my visiting teaching! When we picked up the van Jon asked the mechanic if it was normal to have been able to drive that far without doing any additional damage. The Mechanic looked at us in disbilief and told us we were lucky we didn't lose our whole engine. Suddenly the bill seemed like a blessing from heaven and we are greatful the old green minivan is still part of our little family.
