Yesterday I lost a cherished family member.
But, don't worry. It wasn't a person.
It was the Buick.
For those of you who aren't aware, the Buick was an amazing car that I
sort of inherited from my grandmother while I was in high school.
It was huge, it was red (inside and out), and it was probably the
most comfortable car I've ever been in.
Seriously. I could have lived in it.
I started driving the Buick during my junior year of high school after a deer
destroyed the front and right side of my van. It still had its PA
license plates, which I thought was super cool.
We had quite a time together. . . Here are a few of the moment's I'll never forget.
We were together when I returned to driving after breaking my foot . . .
and when I slid it under the back bumper of a jeep that same afternoon
what a nice welcome back to driving experience.
We were together when the Buick was the only car in our arsenal
that could get up the driveway during a snow event
especially snowmagaddon
and snowpocalypse
 |
| once the van left the driveway, it didn't come back up for a week. the Buick was back up that afternoon. |
We were together when the Buick hit the 100,000 mile mark
on 2/16/2012 two days after what would have been
Grandmommy's 96th birthday ♥
 |
| Happy 100,000 miles Buick. I'll miss you terribly. |
We were together when I was driving to Ocean City, NJ
And we were (almost) together when I rented my first car
(thanks to the Towson incident)
 |
| my first rental car! |
We were together when I bought my new car
(an almost direct result of the Towson incident)
We were together for one last time after I lost my wisdom teeth
(thanks to the squirrels that incapacitated my new car)
We had a great ride together . . . I 'll miss you!
