Yesterday I was informed that my reliable sturdy old friend, Ruby the Astro Van is terminal. Ruby’s transmission is very sick. So we talked and agreed that I needed to move on. She got me to many artisan shows in Maine, Connecticut, Massachusetts and New Hampshire. I sell my products via the website, stores and artisan shows.

Ruby actually went to Ohio and Illinois on a few occasions. Out for a few family gatherings like Thanksgiving, Christmas, and even Cousin Rachel’s wedding.

I will miss her, but know that she will be glad that I am that going to purchase a more fuel efficient vehicle.

It is funny how some of us can grow attached to our mode of transportation and others buy and sell their car like trading futures.

I am looking at a 1998 Volvo AWD Wagon. I am quite excited to get back into a car.

Love, Jen
