We rented a car for the San Francisco trip. We were given a mini van. We wanted a full sized car but a mini van was the best that we could do.

Well, we went to one of the SF art museums. The biggest problem was parking at the museum. It seems that the museum has a fantastic view of the Golden Gate so everyone parks at the museum. They also park along the along the road at the museum.

Parking is fine and dandy but the peepers block the parking for the museum goers. Such was the case for us.

We couldn’t find a parking space so we parked along the side of the road along with about a hundred others. Unfortunately, the road does not have a nice curb and sidewalk. Instead, it has grass.

After doing the museum, we headed out. But we noticed that the right side of the van was scratched!

What the? We looked at the scratches on the van. Very strange. We had scuff marks on the passengers side door, hub cap and running board,

What happened? They were mowing grass that day. My guess is damage by a lawn mower.

I am glad that I took out that additional insurance.
