When people look at my car, they often use adjectives such as "junk" or "piece" or "beater"... my brother casually mentioned turning her in for Cash for Clunkers, and I was genuinely offended. Because when I look at Lola, all I see are road trips from Chicago to Texas, riding the valley, dance parties, and, in essence, Baylor Life. She was my first car - '91 Acura Legend - and to me she will always be freedom. Yet, in a few short days, she will also be a thing of the past. This has been hard for me to come terms with, as it's not just the car... it's the life. A new life is starting for me, and selling her is the first step. unload, simplify, start anew. I know this transition is important, but the process is still so difficult.
Below you will find some of Lola's finest moments:
{Halloween 2k6}
{Last minute road trip to Austin - midnight of finals 2k7}
{NoRo}
{Mattress transportation - moving in 2k7}
{Birthday kidnappings... so many}
{Lola had to be towed back to chicago on a U-Haul, going at a max speed of 56 mph, post-graduation 2k8}
{Late night HEB run, came back with a kiddie pool, 2k5}
It's time to say goodbye. But we all know that Lola will forever live on.

You don't have pictures of the dent on the hood...now how exactly did that happen again? :)
ReplyDeleteShe was a GREAT car. You looked good in her.
Good buy Lola.
B/T/W: there was a woman on the Mayflower who's first daughter died, so she named her second daughter with the same name....could there be another Lola in the future? Lola II?
