No joke here. Just the end of an era, for me, anyway. I've driven this van for 5 years-it's seen my girls grow from toddlers to little girls, it's gone through 3 moves, lots of road trips to Christian rock festivals, it's brought my son home from the hospital. I loved this van, and I would gladly drive it until it quit running if I still could. But, after a bad weekend, I guess it's time for a new car. I took this shot when we went to see it one last time, to retrieve all our things out of it, and assess the damage. I'm going to miss my van, it was a good, reliable vehicle that was great for the whole family.
I'm thinking a Ford Freestyle might be the beginning of my next era. :)

85mm. (that I am beyond words glad to have back!!) ss/800, f/5.6, ISO 200. I added a few textures, trying to convey my feelings about this whole mess.

What a cool shot. Love the texture. I was so sorry to read about what happened to your van, but also so happy for you that you recovered your camera! Wishing you many happy memories with your new wheels!
I love the texture and the "mood" here. And I am SO SO thrilled you got your camera & stuff back, even though the poor van has had it. :( {{{hugs}}}

I am sooo glad you were able to get your stuff back, that's gotta be the biggest relief ever. Sorry you had to go through this, it sucks! I had a car stolen for a joyride when I was in HS and it was scary, so I'm just glad you're ok.
Great textures and great journaling. It's amazing how much "life" happens in our car, isn't it?
So happy you got your camera back! So sorry about your van though!!
that's so sad....
i hope you find a reliable car!

You really captured the mood with your pping. It is a great shot to say goodbye. I am so sorry you had to deal with that whole mess.
So sorry about your van. What a great shot though! I love everything about it and the license plate redo is perfect!
That is such a neat shot. I know how it is to bond with a car... best of luck, I am glad you were able to get everything back.
So happy for you that you got your camera back. Heres to a new era for you.
Sorry about your van, but was happy to hear you got your stuff back! Love the processing you did on this shot.
That is great! LOVE it!
Aw man, Jenn. I'm sorry you're losing your good old wheels. Here's hoping you like your next wheel as much! (This is an awesome photo)
Jenn...I am so glad you guys are ok, and that you actually got your stuff back. Isn't that just amazing and ridiculous all at the same time. I am thinking that a new car would make me feel better (oh and having my camera back too...haha)
Sending {{hugs}} your way!! Im sorry to hear about this but glad your stuff was returned unharmed! I just dont understand people these days!!
