Out with the Old...



In with the new...



It's my new car!  It's a '09 Subaru Outback.  It's one of most beautiful things I own.  (Throw my computer in that mix as well.)  It's Charcoal Gray with Silver accents outside & Dark Gray or Black interior.  It makes driving fun again!  I went to SLC with intent to only look & test drive.  Friday morning, karma was telling me something.  The jeep had seen better days & that particular day it was leaking coolant more than usual.  Mel & I went to her appointment.  (Young Leaders for UW.  I don't know about that.)  I waited in the jeep.  All morning, I saw Subaru's.  It was a sign.  It had to be.  We went to Mark Miller & test drove again.  (I drove one in Ogden the day before.  That's a story in itself.  If you ever wonder if car salesman are conniving, ask me to tell that story.)   Three hours, 1 Jeep & $7000 later (It's more, trust me.), I came back to Lo-Town with a sweet new ride.

Here's a pic for Grandma Bernice & Grandpa Bernie...  my nephews...  Cam, Owen, & Gavin.

PS..  Went to a Halloween Party on Saturday night.  Dressed up as a Ramone, put the contacts in, but sadly no pics.  Maybe, I'll throw it on just for fun.

PPS...  Voted today.  Felt good to check that one box.  If you know me, you know who.
