I am sad to report the demise of my faithful Honda CR-V. She’s been with me since January 2000. 180,000 miles. We were going to grow old together. Unfortunately, two weeks ago, I was on my way to school when I noticed up ahead that a teeny-tiny sports car was pulling out of a driveway onto the highway. I began a brief mantra of “don’t pull out, don’t pull out, don’t pull out.” She pulled out. And into me and my Honda CR-V. I was fine, and the driver of the other vehicle was fine. The CR-V, however, was not.
So…today I visited the same Honda dealership that sold me the CR-V eight years ago and purchased a cute little Honda Fit. I must say I am growing quite fond of her already.
Beth, not your Honda CR-V. However will we recognize you coming down the road, now? Great snow stories. We’re inching up here in Nebraska to a big ol’ 57 degrees today. No signs of crocus or daffodils or that mist of green that fogs Tennessee trees every spring.

): Sorry to hear about your CR-V, but I like the Fit. It is cute. Can’t wait to see it in person.

Glad to hear you’re safe and sound but sorry about your CR-
V. As mantras go, that one should have worked. Phooey.

Sad to hear about the CRV, but glad no one was hurt. I, too, like the Fit. Very cute and sporty. May your CRV rest in peace. She served you well.
