As there are so many activities to enjoy, she had many things on her mind and was in a hurry to the second activity of the day. With the garage door being a little slow today to open and the car a little fast to exit, the Honda 2017 CRV antenna mast was taken off the roof. Thank goodness it’s not going to rain for a few days as there is now a hole in the car roof.

This mishap reminds me of the time when taxiing my pietenpol I hit an old green Ford parked on the green grass next to the main runway. Before security fences were erected, this person drove onto the field to walk his dog. Even though I can’t see forward while moving on the ground, it was my fault. I destroyed my wood prop and knocked some old chrome trim of his front grill.

Let’s enjoy our time in The Villages, be safe, and forgive everyone!
Who hasn’t backed into their garage door? As we were downsizing to move to The Villages, I had loaded up the car with items for Goodwill. I could not see out the back window, so when the door with out of the sight of the review mirror, the car went into reverse and the luggage rack caught the bottom panel of the garage door. The owners of the old house have a brand new garage door!
