Michigan?

We are anxiously waiting to hear if Cara and Tony are heading to Michigan!  Carquest is dying to have Car take over one of their territories based in Grand Rapids.  She visited last week, and wasn't totally impressed ("it's like all of your stores are in Ritzville"-- not a compliment).  Pooh is part of the package deal, as our little Car-Car isn't about to head to Midwest America all by herself.

She was writing up her terms today (hopefully, they included demands for a gazillion dollars, a lakefront mansion, household staff and 30 weeks of vacation a year), and we are on pins and needles.

It's not exactly a win in our "Get Them Back to Spokane" campaign, but at least it's a westward step in the right direction.  And who knows, maybe they need a live-in housekeeper...

1/2 way closer would be exciting! although working in the "Ritzville of the Midwest" would not be...

well glad you are seeing the "up" side of things, but really "its westward" isn't that the only way they could go....

ps. just because they are a tad closer does not mean the airline tickets are cheaper, probably more $$ as no one really goes to Michigan.

Zaide, I'm grasping at straws here. Don't be a Debbie Downer. And they could go to Europe ya know (though I think I'd be more excited about that)

Laurie said...

oh Zaids, you are killing me. I think the train goes there, and it's probably empty so I can do that...

Cara said...

zaide, you are right, no one goes to michigan.

it could be a fun adventure. should know something next week...

Laurie said...
