A New Addition to the Family!

Dear Critter Lovers,

It's true! R and I have purchased a new vehicle! We picked up this 1988 Toyota Land Cruiser in Menomonie, WI today and are really excited about it! R named it LC Elsie. (I spelled it wrong, according to R.)

Yay! We wanted a more rugged vehicle than our Road Toad Honda Accord, and the Land Cruiser is perfect; cool-looking, hopefully reliable, comfortable, well taken care of by the previous owner and affordable enough for us to purchase with cash. R only drives on the weekends or when I'm using the Road Toad, so this should be awesome!

Even better, Elsie made it up over the mound of snow at the bottom of our driveway! R just turned on the four wheel drive and up she went!

We should definitely be able to track down some critters with this truckster!

Ok, I think after our early, snowy excursion east to buy the vehicle, it is now nap-thirty and I will retire!

Wendell!
