The End of An Era

Well Thursday marked the end of an era. It is official, there is junk in my trunk, and the trunk is junk. I officially turned over the title to my car, and am awaiting the arrival of the total check. It was a better financial decision for me. I am going to lease a car while putting a little money aside to buy a car in a couple of years. At least now, I will have air conditioning, even though we are heading into winter, UGH.

I was sad about my car. It has built a great deal of memories. I had a lot of tears in that car, a lot of laughter and great adventures. In September of 2001 that car was loaded up with everything I owned and drove across the country here to Massachusetts. It drove the long, long, long, hours across Kansas a few times to visit my sister Kim in St. Louis. (I still say that Kansas is a state that would not be missed, there is nothing there and it is very flat.)

So marks the end of an era with the wheels. I am looking forward to the new adventures a new vehicle will bring.
