mid-august in kentucky was usually hot and humid and therefore , miserable and the first half of august had definitely lived up to that billing.-however , august 15 this year had dawned unseasonably cool and the humidity was down in the tolerable zone as well.-penny sat in the front seat with ed on the ride home from owensboro ; chrissy sat in the second seat of the rendezvous with the babies strapped in their brand new car seats beside her.-johnny lounged in the third row seat with all the paraphernalia , the flowers , and all the other stuff from the hospital.-the ladies overnight bags were between the third row seat and the hatch at the back.-it seemed simpler than taking two vehicles .
