Frog and Towed
After my first day of baby-sitting ALONE with Little Bear, during which she invented the new art form Poke-alism, and modeled her Hot Chick Sandals and Parasol (see photos), I discovered my rental car was gone. Luckily my Son the Lawyer got on the case immediately, and determined that it had been towed because I was blocking a driveway. We mobilized tape measures and digital cameras in preparation of our defense. Sad to say, we had none: I had so thoroughly avoided blocking the driveway in front of the car that I neglected to avoid blocking the driveway behind it. Truth be told, it didn't look much like a driveway at all, just one of the many curb cuts the City of Los Angeles kindly provides for wheelchairs and strollers. $177 in towing fees plus a ticket for $40. It's only money, right? Ouch.
So what about the Frog?

Oh, serious cuteness alarms going off. What a sweetie.
Sorry about the tow!
Very cute! love the dress.
Pity about the fine, that really is outrageous. One can buy a car for less than $217!
dale - "cuteness alarms" indeed!
udge - Once ca buy a car for less that $217, but I had a full tank of gas, which would cost another $200 at least.
john - pity the "savta card" doesn't work here. In fact it might even boomerang.
They saw you coming, huh?
Love the pictures - she's sooo cute!
Five, ten dollars is 'its only money'. That charge is well into the hurt zone. I'm sorry you encountered it.
Is this a delicious child or what! Yes, yes. Serious cuteness.
Please. Fines? Don't even go there. My granddaughter in Manhattan finally just got rid of her car. It's so frustrating.
Anyway, I loved the photos and thought the title of this post was priceless.
Hope you're having a wonderful visit. Shavuoah Tov, Savta.

Sorry about the towing trouble and the fines.
Now you deserve an extra special hug from that precious little girl.
She is beautiful and you are blessed to have her in your life.
I am so sorry about the car being towed and the horrific fine. I never realized the fine city of Santa Monica was so mean-minded.
Oh the fine, my eyes hurt! But oh the adorablenessnessness of her!
