I sold our car today. It was a good car and I'll miss it, but it is nice to have something a little newer. I kind of like statistical lists so here's one for our old pride and joy.

261,345 - Total miles on the odometer
46,000 - Miles I added to the car
17 - Months I owned the car
10 - States we've driven through together
4 - Times the car left me stranded
2- Tow dollies I rented to get the car home
1 - Plastic milk crate that Kelly threw at the car when it stranded us in Cove Fort, UT
3 or 4 - Times I got drenched with water from the sunroof after a rain storm
1 - Time I had to pull it out of a ditch (really a Provo street gutter) in the snow

The guy who bought it was getting it for his daughter who turns 16 today. I wish them many happy more miles...and I met them at a gas station for the transaction so that just in case anything goes wrong he doesn't know where I live (I don't plan on anything going wrong, but just in case).
