Well, goodbye faithful friend! Our van bit the dust . . . on our way to Omaha. Monte's dad graciously came and rescued us off of the side of the interstate. We stuffed ourselves and our luggage into his car and drove the rest of the way to Elmwood, NE where they live. That was the last time we saw our van. *sad* Well, when it was time to head home, Monte's Aunt Connie lent us her S.U.V. and Monte's mom drove us the three hours back home then headed back to NE. Praise the Lord for family who loves us and is willing to help us out!
So . . .
We got a new van! Monte found a '03 Toyota Sienna online that was priced way below blue book, so after checking it out, he drove to Wisconsin to get it. It's great. It has TWO sliding doors (one of which is electric)! It also has cruise control (now Monte's foot won't go to sleep on our long trips) and a working fuel gauge! Plus, it just looks nice, ya know-- no rust, a non-cracked windshield and interier carpets not yet caked with crushed cracker crumbs. I feel so spoiled. It is a very nice vehicle. Thank you, Lord.
