Nicole's Dave story
Katie, Shea, Marinda, kids and I visited the Eads family from Panama up at Tim and Kathy's little ranch about an hour from here. It was sweet. Beautiful place. Nicole told a hilarious story about David of which I had no recollection. Apparently I was driving the Vanagon when we were in Panama, taking Nicole and Katie home from something and Dave was along. He must have been what, 6 years old? He was horsing around in the back and Katie and Nicole were telling him to put his seat belt on. We were on Ft. Amador, and as Nicole tells it, when she informed me that I had passed her house, I slammed on the brakes sending Dave from the back back seat closest to the sliding door into the rear of the TC/passenger seat. If your remember the Vanagon, there was nothing in between those two seats for about 5 feet, a pretty good travel distance for a 6 year old small fry. As Nicole tells it, Dave was unconscious momentarily after his collision with the passenger seat. It was a pretty funny story and I wish I could remember it. I imagine the unconscious part may be some embellishment. Dave, do you remember it?

It sounds familiar but maybe I'm just inventing the memory. I remember flying up in the Mustang once. I don't think I was knocked unconscious... but then maybe that's why I can't remember!
Apparently Dave doesn't remember that little incident, but I sure as heck do. Nicole got it pretty much right, and it was freaking hilarious.
Were you there Steve? Did I black out?
