Saying Goodbye to Oliver

I bought Oliver in 2004 when he was a small boy. I then lovingly put over 270,000 miles on him over the past 8 years. Oliver decided Saturday that he didn't want to play well with others anymore. Seemingly me! So Oliver must go. Tristan is very sad about this. Even though Oliver hasn't had working air conditioning in 2+ years. Mama is sad to see him go too. But I need more room. Especially with a growing boy.

In 2008 I sat in him by our house on the bay and watched a hurricane come in.

Also in 2008 I trusted him to cart around my newborn baby boy.

He had a loving home in the garage.

He got to see double rainbows.

I even let him stay inside when we got 22+" of snow in the winter of 2010 in a 3 day period.

We sat in tons of traffic together over the years.

I took him on many adventures.

Sometimes I was a bad Mom and accidentally left him in the snow.

We saw lots of beautiful skies together.

I took lots of fun pictures while driving him.

He took good care of Tristan.






We saw many odd things on the road. I am not sure which of these is worse!




I had a ton of fun with Oliver and I will miss him.
