Re-Tired

I do not normally drive Gretchen's minivan, but -- of course! -- it came with us to OVFF. And when I went out to fetch lunch on Sunday, I looked at the tread on the front tires and said "That is some sad looking tread."

Today, the van went to Sam's Club and got a new set of four tires installed. There was likely some more life left in the rear tires, but it seemed better to replace the set. And since Sam's Club (in theory, at least -- we'll see what happens in practice) offers free tire rotations for tires that are bought and installed there, I will be taking it over there on a regular schedule for those rotations.

Since the van will be going to GAFilk with me in January if everything goes according to plan, I am *highly* in favor of tires with good tread. :)
