SOLD


On Tuesday night I posted a craigslist ad at 9:35pm. At 7:30am we recieved a phone call. Chris went to starbucks to have a man test drive the car. SOLD!!!! He came a picked it up tonight, and gave us the money, and we all signed papers. It was kinda sad seeing another person rive my car away.
I will never forget the day Chris and I went to go "look" at the car. I didn't really know how to drive a stick shift well, and honestly I was kinda scared of them, I had a bad experience. But we bought it in Eugene OR. Chris jumped in our other car and said, see you at home. HE LEFT ME IN EUGENE WITH A STICK SHIFT. I learned real quick how to drive that car. So many good times. Chris worked on that car so many times, he got so many tickets, it was my car I drove to work in OR all the time, up and down I-5 from Salem to Albany. Moving to Texas I drove that car all by myself through west Texas. Blasting the radio. Buying 5 wheels and tires for the car, because I put an 8 inch screw threw the tire and wheel. (we still have the tire in our garage.) We also still have snow tires for the BMW too.....I don't think we ever needed those in TX.
15 years from now, I know we'll bug Carter when we talk about our first car....."remember the BMW?" Good Times
