So we bit the bullet and got a new car. It's my first new car in 20 years and Crys' first new car ever. :D It's a Nissan Versa. It's about the least expensive new car you can get but we wanted a new one since retirement isn't that far off and we'd like to do a bit of traveling. We got it at Economy Nissan in Durango. They were straight forward to deal with and never tried to game us.

So now we have a new car. It's odd after so many years of driving old junkers. :D We'll put the 1988 Honda wagon on the block and keep driving the 1990 Honda. The '90 is in really good shape and is pretty darned reliable, plus it gets about 40 MPG (like the new car) so it makes no sense to part with that fine auto.

This spring we've planned a nice long trip up through Canada to Maine, then down through Maryland and back through Oklahoma to see our wide spread family.

But for now we're just celebrating.
