I have a new car. The old one was totaled by a white tailed deer. It was an eye opening experience in which a lot of profound things happened. Maybe i will tell that story one day but for now its still unfolding and its not just my story to tell. But the gist of the message is: the homestead has a new member. She reminds me of my favorite car i ever owned, a 2001 honda crv. She is a 2016 honda crv and i’ve named her Lucy. There is something about the older model crvs with the chunky smooth plastic rectangular buttons and the massive amount of space in the interior, the tray table center console and the wide windows and being able to put the seat all the way up (im short) and see everything like in a pickup…even the sound of the door lock is the same as it was on the 2001 crv. One day i will tell the story, but for now: here’s Lucy.
