"Rosie" has been with Greg almost as long as I have (minus about 2 months)! He first got her in October of 1999, and she has served us well. Actually, we were both getting a little sentimental about her last night. That car has been through so much with us! See below though, it was time....
We weren't sure Rosie would even make the 4 hour drive to Tuscaloosa, so we decided this was the time to trade her in. And luckily, my parents were ready to get a new car, so we are buying their old one! It's a red Honda Accord, and since my Dad is OCD about cars, it's in mint condition (Love ya Dad!) :)
We gave Rosie quite the send-off this morning, as Greg will take her to "junkyard" (as Nate calls it), tonight. And as Greg drove away, Nate yelled "Bye bye you junky car!!"

You know, Rosie doesn't look too bad from those pictures. I'm already starting to regret selling her :( And I think she would have been a good "first car" for Nathan when he turns 16!
Greg is delusional - that car should have never made it past his college years. He better keep mom's old car in tip-top shape or dad will have a meltdown :) I might have only ridden in Rosie once - don't think I'll miss her!! Bye bye junky
ah man! I remember driving that thing to Wake when the original Rosie died..... How many miles were on it? Greg, you should totally get a Datsun 210, but make sure it comes with the umbrella to hold open the hatchback and the brick to keep it from rolling out of the drive way.
