Mom took this picture of Marshall soon after he bought his car.Mason and I had quite an adventure the past two days! After the Army Memorial Service for Marshall in Fort Hood on Thursday morning, Mason and I drove up to Dallas to pick up Marshall's Toyota MR2 that had been there for a few months. Marshall had a new engine put in it with turbo, a turbo timer, some new stuff for the clutch, and I don't know what else. Well, when we got to the mechanic, he said it still wasn't ready and to come back in a few hours. Right. So Mace and I got dinner together and saw a movie (Night in the Museum - pretty good), and then called him back around 8pm since we hadn't heard from him yet. He said he would call us back in 20 min. Nope. After sitting in the parking lot of the movie theatre for an hour, we decided to make our way over to the shop. Well he ended up working on it really late, so we called up a friend and he let us stay with him at his parents' house! The mechanic said he would work on it through the night and we could pick it up in the morning. In the morning we went to the shop at around 10:30, and, surprisingly, he was almost done with it. We finally left Dallas at around noon that day, with the car! I had fun driving around Dallas, getting lost, and hanging out with Mason. I like adventures. I only wish this didn't have to be done under these circumstances. The car is a sharp reminder of Marshall and who he was.
More later.
