New. . .er Wheels!

-
We have actually had the new "car" since the middle of August, but didn't post pictures because we wanted some people to see it "in person" first. Now, however, everyone has seen it and for lack of something better to post, here is a picture of the new wheels. We cristened it with a trip up Whiteface Mt. the day after we got it (back when we posted all the other Whiteface pix).




It's a 2002 Mazda Tribute. Features include: sun roof, cassette player AND 6 CD changer, power locks and windows, remote key-less entry, both automatic and push button 4-wheel drive, etc. It's quite an upgrade, and we're excited to have something a little more dependable and suited to our location!

Congrats on the new wheels. DID notice by the way and didn't intend to seem indifferent or disinterested. We just had a half a zillion things going on in a small time frame. Looks like a fun new "baby" and one of the best kinds for those of us not yet ready to commit to the real thing> :-)

Yeah, Daddy already informed me that it looked like there was plenty of room for a car seat in the back and Ruth was concerned that we get something that sat high enough to not have to lift "things" out of it! :-) She doesn't have to worry about any such thing for a while!

Oh, I hope I did not sound as though I was dropping less than subtle hints. :-P I was NOT I was only referring to the CAR as a new baby -- you know, something to pamper, take care of, be proud of etc. withOUT getting up in the night for feedings.
John and I have been in a similar place where we are thinking of a replacement, not thinking family just yet but thinking we probably SHOULD think about it in a replacement.

No, nothin like that, I was just saying by way of not being ready to commit to the real thing yet. I agree with you, but others don't get that part.

OK, I got this magazine in the mail a couple days ago, but just took the time to actually see what it was last night. They advertise "making luxury affordable" - which of course means that they still charge you outrageous prices, they just let you pay it in smaller installments. This, to me, is more trouble than it's worth anyway even if you don't think about the fact that they (like everyone else in America) are encouraging you to spend more money than you have. The thing that really caught my attention, however, was not the flat screen TVs and computers and living room furniture and mattresses and jewelry. . . Like I said, I looked at this thing last night. It wasn't until I picked it up to throw it away a few minutes ago though, that I realized some of the things I had seen listed! Would you believe they have purses and sunglasses for sale on payment plans?!? This to me is just wrong! I've thought this whole craze was nuts before, but the idea of making a $...

OK, this is just crazy! Where else on earth would it get down right hot for two weeks and then snow again?!?! Yeah you guessed it! This whole week has been nasty cold with snow off and on. (I knew I shouldn't have made that last post!) Anyway, I have been trying to get Jon to let us get a more springy picture of the two of us to put on here, so here it is. Of course there's not too much green stuff around yet and it snowed two days after this picture was taken, but. . . we enjoyed the weather while we had it!
