A New Car

We took advantage of the government's

"Cash for Clunkers" program & turned in our van.

It was rather sad-we've had it for over 10 years.

I have lots of fond memories of all the kids still being

at home, family vacations, camping, etc. It was a

little hard to get rid of it-especially knowing they

were going to destroy the engine. :( But... we

really don't drive it much & it's a gas guzzler, & at the age

where things are always going wrong with it. But it was

still sad... But we got a great deal on a new Avenger

for Bob to drive. This is his first brand new car in his

whole life! (Mine too) It's so quiet with a smooth ride. Not the

color he would have chosen but the program was so successful

in that first week there wasn't much choice. He's very excited about it!

We even get satellite radio for a year! :) Easy to please, aren't we?

Anyway, here's the last photo of the old "clunker". Here's Bob with his new 2009 Avenger!
