I Might Be a Murderer

Yes, it is true. You may have heard the rumor that I killed the red van. I cannot deny it. To all the people who say, no way, you can’t drive 70 mph in second gear:  Well, actually, yes, you can. For awhile anyway. From Heber to Jeremy Ranch at least. Your vehicle might go longer. You’ll never know unless you try, you know!

So goodbye, Vanny! This picture appeared on the fridge today.

The little girl is crying while thinking about the van. The black streaks on her face are tears. (I haven’t actually seen Saffy crying much though. I’m glad she’s able to express her emotions with pictures!)

So now we have entered the world of automatic sliding doors and power keychains. It’s very weird.

It is nice though, after 15 years of wrestling with car seats, to finally have a vehicle with those awesome car seat locks! Why did we take so long to move beyond vehicles from the 90’s?

And finally, here are a few pictures from the event that precipitated the van’s demise.
“Backstage” at Shakespeare Showdown at the Heber Girls Camp.

Final curtain call. Goodbye Twelfth Night! (said with some relief on my part, but sadness on Lisette’s part.)
