It's a Good Look, Don't You Think?

The banged up red Ford van is gone.  It was the van with redneck jumping-bass decal on the rear window, the one that Paul put on as a joke years ago and we liked it so well, we kept it. It was a little harder to see it go than we'd realized. I know that a lot of you really liked that van, and I have to admit, it had been a good car for us -- getting us (numerous times) to and from Canada, Florida, Wisconsin, Maryland and lots of points in-between. It carried memories of Juniper, camping, fishing, college moving in and out.  It had that special family smell that seems to permeate any car we get.  But for once we traded in a car while it was still running.

Anyway, I don't think we'll miss it.  Look what we have in its place: the perfect farm truck!
