There is a time when you must make a decision to just let something go. That time finally came for our little car. In the words of my father..."the love affair just got too expensive." As much as we loved this little beast, I am glad to move into a new chapter in life. A chapter that is complete with not just one minivan, but a pair...his and hers. We may not have a cool car, but we can haul all the people and their stuff!

I am thankful that this car came along when it did and all the enjoyment that it gave us. With every fond memory there is one of getting stuck or wet or really HOT. I sure did love having a convertible, but it will be nice this summer to go throughout the summer and know that before too long the car will cool off and that I don't have to carry a water cooler just to stay hydrated on the 7 mile commute.

I will certainly miss having this little car, but look forward to the next convertible. May I can trick out the Odyssey and make it a convertible...I am sure that A will go for that!
