I'm sitting at the "Presidential" car wash on Magnolia waiting for my Mazda3. Something I've done many times before, but this time is different... This is the last time the 3 and I will be here together. In a couple hours I'll be picking up my new car and dropping my sturdy friend off at Carmax, where hopefully she'll find a good home.
We've been through a lot together, this car and I... I still remember that inaugural drive off from the dealership with my very first new car: hanging with Kristie W. blaring tunes out of the sound system.
Day she got her Cali Plates
This girls been with me through good times and bad, from a tough first year at grad school to many great Santa Barbara trips and that first drive-on to backstage at Disneyland.
Kenosha, WI on route to San Fran...
She had a little trouble with the snow and cold the night before
A little less than 2 years ago we arrived in LA together ready to start real life. We've actually been cross country 3 times, to San Fran and back before coming out here.
Wyoming
She's been a great car. Here's hoping her next owner is good to her, and cheers to our ongoing adventures.
Arrival in California
Thanks for the journey old friend. Every time I see a black 3 drive by, I'll wave hello.
