No. Wait. It's more like this:
and heading to Windsor. Why, you might ask? Well, my car is starting to get a bit elderly. It's a 1997 Grand Prix that I love dearly, but since I commute about 80 km/day (round-trip), 4 days/week, and I like to travel by car to places like Dartmouth, Nova Scotia,
Niagara Falls,
and Sudbury, Ontario,
the odometer is creeping up on 300,000 km. Which is a lot.
Some of you might remember that last year, my mom won a car in a raffle:
which means that she and my stepdad have a perfectly serviceable, and totally superflus superflouuous extra car gathering dust in their garage. It's going to be my car. Maybe not as cool as a Grand Prix, but you gotta like a car that's 2 years newer and has less than 75,000 km on it. So the girls and I are taking the train to Windsor tomorrow, and we'll be driving our new car back to Ottawa on Sunday.
Who knows where we might drive to this summer?

I'm pretty jealous that you're getting a car that'll cross oceans. That's awesome!
ReplyDeleteReally, it IS awesome that you're getting the car. Nice of your folks! I bet that car would drive all the way to Kentucky :-)
Hey! I recognize that lighthouse!!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see you here sometime - in the meantime - take care, and have so much fun! Train trips are all kinds of wonderful.
I'm sorry, I didn't see any pics of Hogtown in there.
