Good Bye Little Joe

This beautiful old pick up truck, dubbed Little Joe, has been with us for 14 years.  It has been a great truck and cost us nothing for repairs until recently.  Things are starting to go wrong but what can you expect after all these years of fine service.  So to keep from having a close personal relationship with the repair shop we have decided it is time for Little Joe to head off to Ford Heaven.

We stopped in to visit our favourite car dealer to see what they had on the lot.  We have dealt with this salesman for twenty years and purchased several cars from him.  His name is Tyrone Hollbrooke at Wilson Nibbett in Richmond Hill, On.  He is the most honest salesman we have ever encountered.  If you are ever looking for a new or used car in our area give him a call.  You will not be sorry.

Tyronne put us into this 2008 Buick Allure at a great price.  It has low mileage and is in excellent condition.  

We took it for a blast down the highway and it is like riding on the big green couch.  It is an old man's car but we are old...lol.  It will be more economical as a daily drive than Big Mo that is for sure.  Now that the vette is away for the winter we will be using the Allure as our daily transportation.  Just need to think of a good name for it.

The bad weather seems to be over.  We have had rain for the past week and getting rather tired of it.  Monday night the wind picked up and it felt like the house was going to blow away.  We had some black outs but nothing serious.  No damage and by Tues morning the wind had died down.  Our prayers go out to all those down the east coast who suffered damage and loss of life thanks to Sandy.  

Until next time - safe travels.
