On tonight's episode of "Undercover Boss" on CBS, president and CEO Andy Wirth gets a makeover and goes undercover to Lake Tahoe, Calif. The Squaw Valley mountain is famous for hosting the 1960 Winter Olympics and the epicenter of big mountain skiing. Alpine Meadows offers a family-friendly atmosphere with excellent snow sports for the entire family. The founder of the empire was Conrad Wirth, Andy's grandfather, who was the Director of the National Parks Services for eleven years. When Andy took over, he purchased Alpine Meadows to give the two resorts a more family-friendly atmosphere, where Squaw Valley mainly catered to the expert skiers. See my family has always been sort of dysfunctional and encountered endless arguments over senseless topics for as long as I can remember. The lesson of karma is that at some point in time, God, the Universe and the "powers that be" will step in with the intent of rebuilding the structure of a family broken down.

To give you an idea of the depth of the collection, on display is a 1926 Rolls-Royce. Wilbert Grinsven, the curator tells me that there were only two years that Rolls-Royce manufactured cars in the United States. Those years were 1926 and 1927. This car is one of the few Rolls Royce's made here during that time. The auto manufacturer decided that it was not economically feasible to continue manufacturing autos in the US and closed its factory here in the states after only 2 years. Another example of a beautiful old car is a car used in the movie "Driving Miss Daisy". http://www.wikihow.com/Find-a-Good-Used-Engine Chloe was born on March 22, 2012 my second granddaughter. She has been a blessing to me since the first time I saw her beautiful face. I am graced with the ability to work form the comfort of my home, however, my son has not been that fortunate. He is a welder and works 3rd shift so I volunteered to be the nanny and take care of the baby while he and his wife both worked. At 43 and having an 11 year old of my own, this life checkpoint sort of threw me for a loop. Job 4 is lift maintenance in Squaw Valley. Charles is the instructor who will give David a run for his money. They will be testing and running the lifts to ensure safety of all skiers. Charles is engaged and hopes to go to Europe to ski on his honeymoon. David looks familiar to Charles with his Joe Dirt hair and glasses. Charles keeps looking at David and tells a fellow employee that he believes that David is Andy Wirth. With his cover blown, Andy finds out that Charles and his crew are under appreciated. They must be there without lunch or breaks to keep the equipment running and cannot rest until it is operating safely. There were three major car manufacturers. Ford, General Motors and Chrysler. Each manufacture had a following. Arguments could erupt over which car was the best. A man's Dodge pickup was a source of pride. Sunday morning the family would dress in their best clothes and get into a Buick for the trip to church. The Cadillac represented power and money while the Ford and Chevrolet represented the working people. People that lived in the country had a buy kodiak truck. It was a working truck and on Saturday's the kids jumped in the back for a trip to town. I'd never been in a fraternity in college and only had one brother, so I never had to prove much in my lifetime. No initiation rights, crazy acts of bravado. Not even tested in war or proven to be a man. Sure, I've had some success in business, but sitting in that truck with a man like Harvey just brought all those male hormones to the front burner. Hot or mild. Just what kind of chile man was I to become? You can do the checking of the wheels and the tires yourself. However, one auto group, the Car Care Council, do extremely suggest that it would be best to leave the checking of the other mentioned parts to experts. Make sure you have professional technicians or car mechanics take a good look at the steering, alignment, and suspension of your vehicle. That pothole may have given you and your car problems that you never thought possible. Divorced folks really do not have any place to go for guidance. Sure a good friend offers a shoulder to cry on, but the tragedy of having personal credit destroyed from a broken marriage is serious.
