on the End of an Era

My parents finally got around to selling our trusty, rusty old 1988 Honda Accord. It was time–the bumper has been tied on for a couple years, we haven’t dared take it out of the county since we got our new car in 2003, and with Beth and I out of the house there is little need for two vehicles. Still, I can’t help feeling wistful. We owned the car beginning in 1993, and it served us well on many a cross-country roadtrip in its day.

Ah well…I’m sure the hundred bucks will be useful as well. :)

  1. RIP, Honda Accord. You lived a long and valuable life.

  2. I remember when my parents got rid of our old minivan that had been the source of so many crazy rides (especially during the last few years where it was driven almost entirely by Jonathan and I), sad times.
    Anyways I also have a tech question for you (I guess I could just email you, but this should work too, right?). I am trying to get the main colomn of my blog to be about 5-10pts wider. Is there a way I could make it do this by adding some code to my stylesheet? Any ideas would be appreciated!

  3. From this angle, you can hardly see the rust — looks good to go another 100,000 miles (to add to the 200,000 and some….)!
