Our last car (a Honda) didn't last quite as long as your bus, but it served us well for many years. I did think I heard a sigh coming from it when I closed the door on it at trade-in time. I'm not sure if it was glad to be rid of us or sad to see us go!walk2writehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13501812375142037251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740983595962649109.post-52402340041863497072013-07-25T05:52:51.265-07:002013-07-25T05:52:51.265-07:00lol..explain to it, it's new 'vintage'...lol..explain to it, it's new 'vintage' classification and wotrth.

I'm glad to know that it (he?she?) has a loving and permanent home.<br />I wish I could say the same for myself.<br /><br />Whenever there's a new kid in the family sibling envy and rivalry is bound to happen.
