The Toad Gets a Bath --

We went to Spokane today for an AHEC get-together (more about that tomorrow) and went to one of our favorite lunch places, Maggie's South Hill Grill.  On the way, we passed an energetic group of youngsters having a car wash in a parking lot.  Since the Toad was still carrying around Arizona mud, we decided to stop on the way back. 


There were some of the cutest ever young people working very hard --


Along with their elders, they were raising money for a homeless shelter.


And did they ever do a good job!  The Toad had his windshield scrubbed three times as they made sure all of the bugs were gone.


I've stopped at some of these volunteer car-washing groups before and have generally gotten a fair job -- often the kids were more interested in flirting with each other or getting everyone wet then in cleaning cars.  Not this group!  I don't know when I've seen a group that worked so hard and so cheerfully!
