My mom – she is definitely different. I think she swims to her own tune – trust me on that one. You know that she has the Smart car Albert but she also has another car. She has an Equinox called Tank. Most of the time, she drives Albert but there are the days that she wants to drive a bigger car – like Tank.
Here’s the problem. If she parks them in the driveway back to back, then she has to move them around when she wants to take one over the other. Cause you know, there’s no parking on the grass – rolls piggy eyes. We can’t hurt that dreadful grass. Ideally, it would be awesome to get the driveway extended out a bit. That’s what daddy would love to do. But until then, the problem persists.
So mom, she came up with a solution as you can see from the picture below. She parks Albert sideways and parks Tank straight in the driveway. That way, she can take either one without having to play hopscotch cars. How original is that? Of course, she has to drive Albert on the grass on the other side of Tank but there are actually bricks on the yard on that side that you can’t see with this picture.
But you want to hear the funny thing about mom’s originality? She’s been doing this for a while and it’s catching on in the neighborhood. Now you can see other households doing the same thing. Snorts.

Yes indeed…………your Mom IS a trend-setter like Wallace and Sammy have pointed out…..this parking technique is worthy of a special label…..”Mompark” ? “Smartpark” ?
Hugs, Sammy

I have a friend who parks her Smart Car like that on the street instead of parallel parking. It’s legal, because she isn’t impeding traffic and in some cases is taking up less room in the road than other cars, but it still gets a lot of stares and people stopping to take pictures.

That’s hilarious! I ❤ how mommy does this. She parks the other way, close enough to the porch that it makes it easier for me to step up into Albert to ride around with her. I have to give her that -she's original! XOXO – Bacon

We don’t think we would worry to much about the grass – I think we could could see a few blades of green….double driveway would be much easier

Yes it would be easier. And eventually mom and dad said they are going to do it. But for now, this works. 🙂 XOXO – Bacon

Well, we think it is pretty cool to have wheels that you can park just about anywhere or anyway you want. We think your mom’s little car is cute! Hugs and snout kisses

aaww – thanks my friend. Me and mom love that car. It’s just perfect for the both of us. I sit in the back, mom up front driving. Little Houdini is going to get the passenger seat soon – mom has to buy him a booster seat for safety first. XOXO – Bacon

Jolly good idea but your mom will have to drive on the grass….if she doesn’t care then she’s home free.

Oh the first commenter took my comment. LOL. Yes Mom is a trend setter. Do you know yogurt was viewed as suspicious when it first arrived and now most eat it. Also commenter is not a legit word but I reckon if enough of us use it it will be added to the dictionary. Shakespeare used non legit words and now they are standard. I could bore you to death with examples but I wont. XXX
My point is your Mom is a trend setter. 😀
