Timmy the Titan got recalled; some problem with the exhaust system. We made the appointment so long ago that I can’t even remember the details.
It meant we had to go into the Big City, and when we dropped off the car they told us it would be 3-4 hours before he’d be finished. (They had quoted somewhat less when we made the appointment.)
Now, Luna is a dog who likes to go, so we brought her along. The dealership is right on the coast, so we pretty much walked up the water’s edge (not as romantic as it sounds; much of it is industrial docks) until we got to some cool tidepools and Luna got to swim.
