Yeppers, that's a clean car!

In the insanity that is my life, I look for things that I can do that make me happy. It's the time of year when our local club car show rolls around. And not only did my spouse and I participate on the committee, we also did judging. I've never judged anything for scores in my life, but it's as good a time to start as any. Turns out, it's very telling what people think is clean on a car. Things that are easy, like vacuuming, seem to go by the wayside. We, on the other hand, are maniacs on the detailing front. Like last year, we decided to go one better and go for the Super Clean category. So not only does the inside and outside of your car need to be clean, so does the trunk and engine compartment. This is a bit of a challenge, especially since I've been parking at work in what is effectively a construction zone. Sand has been everywhere. However, we sucked it up and cleaned like fiends for 2 days. And our reward? 1st Place Trophy in our category. It cheered me immensely. Knowing the competition, I'm still stunned. But now I have two trophies for my car. I never got a trophy for anything before this car. I like the hardware.
