Boxing Day gratitude

My 93-year-old mother and I were driving back to Maine on the day after Christmas when my car started shimmying uncontrollably on the highway. I pulled over and randomly stopped at Meineke Car Care on the Heights. I was hoping perhaps they could squeeze us in to take a look. The manager was so friendly and helpful. They put my car on a lift immediately.

A technician came back and said my wheel wells were frozen solid with ice and he had thawed them out, and we were good to go. The manager said, โ€œNo charge. Merry Christmas!โ€ My mother even got a bonus hot cocoa during our visit, and then we were back on the road.

Thank you Meineke. You guys rock!
