"One of my holy water bottles is a spray bottle. Perfect for spritzing the car before trips (or my sons' trucks at ANY time). :)"
When we get new cars we ask the priest to bless it with holy water and once a year he comes by our homes and work places and blesses them. In our homes, the youngest child will usually carry a cross leading the priest through the house while he slings the holy water around. Do Roman Catholics do this?

My tractor was blessed and the first thing I did with it was bush hog the church's unused 8 acres of eye-high grass (consecrated ground for future cemetery). St. John Deere!

I really like the blessing of a new house.

yup....and then it gets hit by lightning. Seriously. Blew out all four tires and the radio. My dad's response, "think what would have happened if we hadn't asked God to bless it."
