First, we pay our respects

Tom’s car is getting on in years and has been burning more and more oil but it’s the one with the roof rack for the bikes so we were a tad alarmed when we saw some liquid running down the driveway from under the car the night before we left. Didn’t seem like oil and had evaporated by the morning …
