I too have a penchant for old cars. A few years after college my parents gave me their old Pontiac Le Mans, which I drove until Michael totaled it, but I too had loved that car. I had named her "Pookies," took very good care of her and her "Palomino Green" outer coat until one day a car crashed into it in the parking lot of my brother's apartment building. Not having many financial resources and not wanting the already old car to rust out, I spray painted the exposed metal parts with Rust-Oleum anti rust paint, which only came in a reddish brown color at the time. It looked like a camouflaged army vehicle. Everyone on the road gave me a wide berth.
I only have my gas guzzling, old Jeep because we bought it to pull a pop-up camper and it is still in good running shape and I barely use it. Funny how memories can be tied to objects, especially cars.
Beautiful testimony to emotional intelligence and good negotiation skills. As always a well written article that always keeps me engaged. Happy Anniversary - Have fun celebrating - You have a beautiful day to do so!
Always love the ride in a Cadillac! You two are looking cool next to that saffron!
Great story and Happy Anniversary!
