Interesting that Lewes was originally Lewistown and Newark was New Ark. That explains why correct pronunciation of Newark Delaware is NEW-ark, which is different from the place in NJ said NEW-irk.

I got a big workout and got straight to work-work, so I am not experiencing much guilt; however, I do need a shower.

Daughter #1 is driving a used 2010 Corolla we bought last year. She called us the other day, frantic, that she lost her key and do we have a spare. It only came with the one key, sad. She finally found the key, but the experience made us consider buying a spare key. The Toyota dealer wants $200 for the key part plus $130 to program it. NFW. Will investigate big box hardware store options. I see the part can be bought online for about $25 but the programming part is way out of my knowledge zone.
A key for the Saturn is only $5. No programming needed. Harrumph.

They look like humans dressed for extreme cold, not "below 65" like you said was the threshold for humanity. Here are some humans dressed for bicycling into the low 30s. I was there, it was fun.
Here I am on a ride in the 30s. Had to take a layer off for climbing.

I meant to share this a couple weeks ago when somebody mentioned crows.
Red-tails have a bad reputation and other birds won't tolerate them hanging around. There were 2 or 3 others in the chase that I couldn't get into the shot.

If you lose the key and have to pay someone to make one on-site I imagine that could get pricey.

That's horrible John, I am so sorry. I must admit though you still look human. But I guess the special clothes hide the changes.

There are non-dealer sources for keys and programming. Programming a key usually involves using a scan tool but some older cars can be done with a simple procedure which you might be able to find on-line. That car I don't know but it might be the same as a Prizm.
If you lose the key and have to pay someone to make one on-site I imagine that could get pricey.
