Time Flies

Ten years ago I bought a Jeep so that I’d have room to transport Ryma’s two precious girls. Today I took those two girls young ladies to pick out a new Jeep!

We need something with an automatic transmission for them to drive. They didn’t like the idea of replacing the minivan, or the Miata I suggested. And the more I thought about it, the less it made sense buy a third car when they’ll be going back to school in a couple of months. They’ve been home a couple weeks already, and need to be able to get around.

That now ten-year-old Jeep is showing its age, and the AC died a couple days ago, so we “compromised” and replaced it with the one pictured above. It’s got an automatic transmission, and also a hard top (something we had always planned to add to the old Jeep).

It’s been more than a decade since I bought a car without Ryma’s input. Today her girls picked this one.

 

Snowmagedden ’10. This Jeep served us well for ten years! Ryma loved to go for drives in the snow. It’s not obvious in this picture, but she’s inside the Jeep.
