Car Wash
I love reading about the Car Wash. I never realized that the different seasons dictate the running of the Car wash. I knew winter would be busy because of the salt but I never thought much else about it. Here in town, we do have some car washes without an attendant. You drive through them and pay at the gate. They are almost always packed with cars. I personally prefer the full car wash and wax. They get busy too but it goes a lot faster than the automated machines. Thank you for sharing all of your articles. I learn something new every day and I love that.

sometimes i wonder
how we humans ever had time to learn new things when the skies could always be so volitile. I'm a bit of a weather junkie. I think I could spend half the year just watching the clouds, the sun, the stars... And the Fall is always a great time to do this. THere can even be hurricanes!

When I think of the "salty season" I think of a fire in the fireplace and a bowl of buttered, salty popcorn.

So, we're back to trying to expect the unexpected, huh? I guess a lot of businesses have what is referred to as a "roller coaster ride." Sometimes it's up, sometimes it's down. I'm sure you're staying on top of the "cycles" . . .

round and round the cicles of the year and one person's harvest is another's time for a rest. I enjoyed this series. I always enjoy your series.

Instinct comes into play I guess, people don't seem to want to wash cars here if it is wet. If you ever wish to sell up, you will know which months to choose.

I like to spend March and November in some place where I don't need a car - on some little island in the West Indies, with a boat to get around it occasionally! Rarely works out that way, though...
