Miles and Miles with Smiles and Smiles!

Since living in this lovely, green, wet, humid, cold, icy, covered in salt roads in the winter area. We have had 2 cars completely die (3 counting the one we are trying to get to last until graduation but hasn't quite died yet) with major rust problems, both of which we bought out here so needless to say that answers my question as to why you don't see a lot of "old" cars on the roads here ..... they don't survive! I really don't know how many people who have purchased 4 cars during a 2.5 year grad program, in fact I don't know any. But I am not complaining, we've always had something to drive and the best is the current van a Nissan Quest that I love that made the long and happy drive from UT to PA! This was due a collection of family members that we are Greatly indebted to! One of which is Greg who volunteered to drive this gem from Orem to Erie, and often slept in the back of the van along the way. He claimed to have a great time and I actually believe him! We got to see him for a quick 2 days before he had to fly home, one here in Erie with the all of us and the other in Pittsburgh just me and buddy, it was a fun visit! So great to see Greg and so very amazing to know that we have family that will help us out in so many ways!
