Sometimes you just gotta get it done wherever you can.

Or you're not!

'Cause that thing definitely is not going to fix itself!

That is the simple reality of the situation.

 Breaking up is hard to do. Part two of a continuing series. 

Laugh if you will, but I already miss that thing! 

I broke up with one vehicle by having it break down on me. That was easy, if not painless.

 I still love the long roofs!

The Parklane provided the glamour to go against the Chevy Nomad.

This is my favorite wagon advertisement picture.
It captures the idea of family fun.

 Gone Exploring, Part Two. Mea Culpa.

Yes, It's all on me. Sorry.

I'm more than willing to accept my part in this fiasco. It would have been better if I had changed out that serpentine belt and pulleys. 

 More Mustang miles.

Nothing that I've decided means that I don't still want one.
How's that for some twisted logic?

The  silver lining in the cloud.

We had to rent a car for the trip home, and the lady behind the counter asked about upgrades. She suggested a Cadillac. I asked about Mustangs. They had a few. So we found ourselves in a brand new Mustang GT convertible. My Dream Car!
