About a month ago we decided that our Toyota 4Runner would not be the most economical choice as we are now driving the L.A. freeways instead of four-wheeling through the back fields of the Monte Rd. house. So we put old Johnny up on craigslist to see if we could trade for a little gas-saver. So here are some of our goodbye pics. Selling Greg's first car was a tough deal, but we will keep all of the memories of Johnny with us - trekking almost all the way to the Oregon border, doing donuts in the fields where Ruth the goat now lies (we miss you Ruth), drive-in nights, and packing up our lives to move to Long Beach - just to name a few!
We ended up trading Johnny for a little Nissan 200sx with about the same mileage (though it's a '96 and Johnny is a '90). We have yet to take pictures with our new addition, but they are coming! She was nameless for a couple days, but we finally settled on "Pollyanna". So far Polly has been good to us, saving us nearly half of what we were spending on gas and looking pretty fly with her back spoiler and faded black paint job. We are learning to love her though! :)
cool guys. charlotte will be so excited to hear that her name is pollyanna. thats her favorite movie! :) does she look anything like mom's old black nissan??
