ADVENTURE 6


I love my Dad. He's in the car industry and was kind enough to ship a car from California to Texas when he heard about my big move. He's always been amazingly generous. A few days ago the lightbulb light came on the dash. When I told my Dad, he suggested I take it to the dealer. I moaned and groaned because I anticipated high costs. But I did as I was told and what I thought was one blown bulb, turned out to be three. One headlight and both brake lights. The maintenance crew directed me to the parts counter to pick up the bulbs. They quickly delivered them to me, changed out the old ones and when they wrapped up, I naturally asked, how much do I owe you? The gentlemen just looked at me and said, "They're on the house, ma'am. You're new here. Welcome to Texas."

I love this state!

  1. Does that make you feel like something you'd hear in St. Thomas? Love it. Remember, you'll probably do well with acknowledging them by saying hello, good morning, good day.
