It's funny how you don't even notice the smells anymore.

It's not that you don't notice the smell anymore, it's that it doesn't register in your brain as a "bad" smell, like skunk, or rancid meat/veggies.
It will register in your brain if you smell that aroma somewhere else, and it will trigger a memory, probably of a very large fish!
Isn't the human brain a wonderful thing?

i'd build something on the outside of the vehicle
and wash everything inside with lemon WAY in advance
or you'll never hear the end of it....

i hear ya Raven, but she actually took it pretty well.
it was mostly because i had just had a belly-filler in there
within hours of them climbing in. there's only hint of Striper, now.

ohhh, i NOTICED, allright,,,,,,,,,,,i was just playing coy with her and my daughter  and, truly, the brain IS amazingly and wonderfully made; isn't it ironic how smells link to memory and how one schnozz's idea of stench is another schnozz's idea of nirvana?

very true
the olfactory sense is way way under rated
it's actually our keenest sense.
and can send you down memory lane faster than a time machine.

That's what I've always heard. Must be pretty cool. Unfortunately for me, my olfactory never opened for buisiness. Of all the senses to be without, I guess it's the best one. Beats being blind for sure...
Downside is, I got to change a LOT of dirty diapers when my kids were younger.
