President Taft’s 40-horsepower White Model M steam-powered touring car in 1909. And they call the latest presidential limo The Beast.

Note the right-hand drive. There’s some !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! on that from the US DOT.

And a good morning to you too!

Happy Monday- I’m trying to get some work done while watching a sick kid. Not ideal.

Well, on the bright side, you’re not at work. I hope the little guy feels better soon.

Thanks - he’s a lot better this morning actually.  More energy and the fever is pretty low grade.

As parents, we always freak out when a kid has a fever. We tend to forget that the fever is his little body doing exactly what it needs to do to get better.

In our case, it’s more being worried about keeping him fed. He’s not a big eater to begin with, and being sick kills what appetite he has.

That, plus of course waking us up at night (which he never does when healthy, thankfully!)
