Some folks like to keep their cars spotless.
Some folks wipe the dirt off every time they get gas.
Not me, though. You know why?
Because if you don’t have some dust on your car, you’ll never know when someone walks on your hood!
baffled
Neighborhood kids?
That’s my guess. Either that or someone at work with very small feet.
Achh! It’s one of the WEE people!!! Did he leave ya a pot o gold now? or just some clean spots?! LOL
Now I have helped to wash that car Beth, and I must say, I’m completely appaled by it’s current condition!!! ROTFLOL 
Aw, c’mon, it’s good clean dirt!
Feel free to come and wash it again! LOL
Thats what I call a “musician’s car.”
My wagon has been a musicians car for so long that I now refer to it as
“The Unabombers Cabin.”
True fact. I just don’t understand people who have time in their lives to actually regularly wash their cars, despite its salutary effects on the paint job, self-esteem, etc.
If (god/ma nature/insert your own preference here) meant for us to wash cars (he/she/they/it) wouldn’t have invented rain.
Actually I probably will be washing it soon so the mechanics who change my tranny fluid are happy. But after that I think I’ll let the NY snow do it.
I much prefer Boise dirt to Rochester dirt though - in NY they salt the roads so much in winter that the summer flowers are high in sodium.
The only time that our van gets washed is when we go down to So. Cal. On the way down, we always stop at McDonalds. Many months later, I’ll find perfectly preseved fries, lying under the kids’ seat, which proves that McDonald’s french fries are not really made out of food. But they’re soooo good. . . . if they’re hot! (And if they’re not hot, I just throw them under the kids’ seat. )

It has been said that a clean car is a sign of a sick mind.

Burger King fries are much better.
BK’s fries are the best, but they all tend to clog the windway if you’re not very careful!!! 
Great arches, had they!
jim stone, that sounds to me like a fine name for a tune!!! 
Sung by Yoda!
As long as it’s not Enya!!!
Along the same lines - my wife has a sign in our hall “Dull Women have Immaculate Houses”
And her favourite tune title is (of course) “Dusty Windowsills”
That sign is akin to one my wife has, “Bless this Mess”!
We’re on restricted water use here because of a drought emergency. Washing your own car will get you a $100 fine! I could drive to a commercial car wash in the next town, but I think my dusty car shows that I’m doing my civic duty.

No matter to me, however, as I always go to a car wash! >
