Last January I wrote a post about a junk yard I saw off the side of the freeway on the way back to school. It is with a sad heart that I announce that my little red baby wagon, the Ford Escort SE, has gone to just such a place.
She was a valiant car (aren't all cars girls?), who made it through 2 teens learning to drive, a head-on with the house, a rear-end collision with an Idaho hillbilly, and was finally thwarted by an icy road and a cement median in podunk Idaho.
She will be missed, especially as I walk myself around Rexburg in the middle of the winter.
She served as my get-away car, my partner in crime, my location for many a photo shoot. She had zip and grit. She carried her battle scars proudly and with strength.
Wagon, my friend, rest in peace.
