Here's 'the man'! Our wonderful Frank (Jim's Dad) gifted this gorgeous little Saturn to Ross--and you can see how happy he is with his first ever car! Thank you Frank! It is such a cute car but with as tall as Ross is, we had some concerns that he would have to sit with his head out of the sun roof to drive--turns out it is not the case--he just sits in the back seat--hahaha! What a happy day! He is still a little nervous about the car so it is spending plenty of time being admired in the driveway--he has had it out to town once and to the neighbor's picnic Monday. We are pretty sure that won't last long! OH, and he hides the keys--the sheep have been begging to take it for a spin--bwaaahahahahaha! Jim says at least then they will leave the Gator alone??! :0)
Working toward a big update on the site today and this week so keep an eye out! Lots of dyed fiber, roving and our new 'clouds'--also will keep you posted as we get FedEx all set to go.... Happy fiber days!

San and Ross,
You won't feel so dang tall after you drive the car a bit more and the seat squishes down a bit.
I have the same problem, and with my Toyota Tercel, I could barely get my butt behind the wheel. My dad laughed at me cause I didn't fit in my own car, my knees were jammed up under the stearing column, and the rest of me, well, I was as far in the back seat as I could get. But now it is a fine fit! Darn seats just have too much fluff in them.
I love the Saturn. It looks like just the car a graduate needs to find him some honey and hay!!! Oooppsss, wait that is the sheepies! Mmmmm... maybe it applies too?
:)
Speaking of which, where are you going to put my big old boxes in that little thing? You will have to be creative but careful.
I can now fit me, the big mama jamma spinning wheel, a card table, a folding screne, 2 or 3 tubs of fiber and 4 big overnight bags full of yarn and FO's, 5 glass bricks, two huge display baskets, and one hanging rack! And that is not even using the trunk!
Might I suggest getting some old blankets at the thrift store? And I use them to protect the leather on the doors when using my 2 door as a pickup truck. They also come in handy for other things too, like hauling dirt or dirty dogs.
I keep towels over my seats too because it is easier to clean off the sand and that helps to protect them somewhat! You know, in case I get a HOT DATE!! :0
