Thanks Les Schawab

This morning as I was out-and-about (with Luke), my "tire warning" light came on (yes, I had to get out my manual to see what the orange horseshoe light with an exclamation mark meant). I stopped and all the tires looked good-to-go (but this assessment was made by looking and and stopping just short of kicking the tires). But, to be on the safe side, I thought I should have someone else look at them. When I had my old Honda, I tended to fix most car problems by turning up the music. But, even loud music can't drown out the tire light. I went to Les Schawb, a tire store known for friendly service. They were really backed up, but the guy said that the light often comes on in cold weather. Yes, we have been having cold/icy weather--strange for Seattle. He told me to pull around and they would check the pressure. Nothing seemed to be wrong and they guy put only a bit of air in the tires, but it was nice of him to check (esp since he was being watched very closely by a certain black, shiny dog). I was glad that "good" (read: free and friendly) service isn't that far away...
