The four of us at dinner last night, talking about the recovered yellow Jeep. Did it being bright yellow make it stand out as a target from the mechanic’s lot? We know it was easy to spot when the kid Kelly “bumped” went looking for her after his dad said to find her. (She was getting her haircut. He found her.) And then you wonder about the whole bear under the yellow jeep incident…

I declared, “When we get it back, I’m just going to have it painted camouflage.”

“That will make it stand out even more,” Kelly said.

After a moment of thought, Claire said, “That’s ironic.”

We decided Claire was right. An unexpected reversal of intention is an example of irony. I paint the yellow jeep camouflage and just about every boy in the area would want to steal it (per Kathy.)

Brilliant observation, Claire!
