Default Leaf Blower for Drying!

I mentioned to my wife that I stopped at HD to look at leaf blowers. She asked why? I said to dry my car. She BUSTED out laughing!! I told her "it's essential!"
She really laughed ...a lot. Said she is going to have to email everyone on this one. She just doesn't "get it!"
Cheers

Well tell your wife even smart guys at F1 essentially use blowers for such as this to cool off rear/mid engines!

When my wife asks why I stopped at HD, I always tell her I needed to pick up a reciprocating saw, some lime, and a couple of plastic containers. She then usually forgets that she asked why I stopped--I think. YMMV.

Yep, I use one too. My wife even has a set of ear muffs in the garage for when she helps me wash and dry as it's loud. I have an electric one for the cars and gas powered for yard work.

Don't worry some wives will never understand. I purchased a 16 foot $150 pressure washer wand extender from Home Depot to clean the gutters and pool cage, because of black mold this season. My wife says she didn't even notice that our white gutters and pool cage was turning black, after I spent 3 days pressure washing the exterior of our house!! Go figure.
