My family's carwash is hooking up with another carwash & will be changing over to a new name in a few weeks. It's kind of weird because it's been our family's business for so long & we've all put so much care, love & hard work into it. I'm happy for my parents in this economy to be lucky enough to have found such a wonderful opportunity, but it's also sad that they had to go looking! We will all miss the carwash. Everwhere we go with my parents, they are waving & saying hello to people. We will ask "who is that?", and 9 times out of 1o, they answer "a really good customer." It has been quite a legendary little business! We seriously were driving down the highway in Hawaii several years ago on vacation, and a guy driving a motorcycle passed us wearing one of our carwash t-shirts! My Dad knows most people by what kind of car they drive. We'll be talking about someone, and Len will have to tell my Dad "you know...the red, convertible BMW guy" and he'll be like "oh yah, him." It's pretty funny!Len will continue working for the carwash & is registered to go back to school & finally finish his undergrad work. Yeah! He will cruise through it & be done in 2 semesters. I will loose my stay at home job, unfortunetely, but I have a really hard time getting much done with all the kids anyway. Plus, I'm also registered to go back to school & complete my graduate work. Pheww! It's going to be crazy! It's probably all for the best though. We are looking at new, creative ways to make up for the lost income, where I can still be home with our little munchkins!
It will be hard to see the sign, with our name on it, being taken down & replaced. I guess the best thing is to look forward & wish the new partnership & owners best of luck. Happy washing! Here's to new adventures! Click here for more info.

O I remember my days at the car wash! It was such a great job for me while I tried going to the U. Too bad I missed BYU too much. I am sad to think of that sign coming down after all these years!!I am impressed that you and Len are headed back to school! I got your message and will call you in the morning!
Woah! I LOVE getting my car washed there, and according to my dad, it's a SIN to wash anywhere else! We will miss the sign and I need to come buy shirts before it's all different... still possible? Love ya.
