Ernie's on the truck!!

I am so excited -- my sister is finally going to get our '05 Corolla. She needed a car; we bought a new one, and rather than trade in Ernie, we're shipping it across country to Sister.

Ernie has been through a major car wreck in which she was almost totaled. The agent didn't total her because I pleaded with her not to. We got her back good as new, and they matched the paint perfectly.

Ernie's made countless trips from Southern Maryland to Clinton, Tennessee. She has over 135K miles on her and is in fabulous condition.

Sister will receive her by Veteran's Day.

Woo hoo! Party! Bounce!

This was a wonderful thing you did for your sister, Bertha

What did you and the Mrs. decide to buy to replace Ernie? (Our Honda's name is Daisy...)
