Cohousing-L Mailing List: remembering why we thought cohousing was a good idea

[Kay Argyle (argyle]

One of the guys had mentioned Monday night at the common house party that
they'd gotten the air compressor in the workshop running.  When we noticed a
tire was low, just as we were leaving to see family Christmas afternoon, he
showed us how to turn it on, and his visiting father-in-law loaned us a tire
gauge to double-check that my 30-year-old bicycle gauge was giving an
accurate reading.  The pressure got lower between every service station air
pump during the hundred miles there and back, and the tire developed an
audible hiss, so we planned that first thing the next day we would take the
car to a tire shop.

Wednesday, the lady whose backyard is kitty corner from ours stopped by to
offer us an air compressor that ran off a car cigarette lighter, saying
she'd noticed we had a flat.  We thanked her very much, and explained about
the compressor in the workshop.

We went out to the car a little later.  My room-mate started laughing.
Someone had left a couple of cans of compressed air next to the car.
