The Open Road Ahead

My new car!

I bought my brand new magnetic grey 2008 Prius today from Fairfield Toyota, and immediately went for a joyride to Napa Valley with my visiting aunt, uncle and god daughter. In less than the ten hours, I logged close to 200 miles on my new ride, and words can hardly express how totally sweet it is to drive. It’s the most high tech toy a boy could want!

The Open Road

I feel pretty good about what lies ahead, despite the recent down from the accident. Things look great from this new perspective, and I’m extremely excited to see where the road and my new car take me.

  1. I’m so glad you got your ride! Love you! It is very hot and I can’t wait until it picks me up at the airport in June. ;c)

  2. I love your new Pria Pet (that’s what we called the one Andrew was renting for 3 months)! And I love the color, too! Have you decided on a name for it yet? Happy trails!

  3. Congrats on the new set of wheels. In you’re new Prius, you will no doubt be KING OF THE ROAD! 🙂

  4. Part of me was hoping you’d pick the SMART car, but I’m sure the space issue is what helped you decide on the Prius. It’s a great car, you’ll love it! I’m jealous you went to Napa!
