hey buddy...
yes, if i remember correctly, someone "stole" the van at night, joy ride for awhile, it was found a couple miles away, with lots of damage...joan borrowed a small van, had a couple private drivers, and i think even paid a couple taxis to get the kids to school that day...her brother and family was visiting from kingston, and he helped by driving some of the kids...some great people who do what they can...
and yes, we try to give back...we know sandy does alot(cant call her pooper, lol) with the animals, and that is so great...we dont have kids, have 5 dogs and 2 cats....we take lots of stuff for the kids, but also 5 lbs of dog and cat food...
