The other day our car officially hit 200,000 miles. We've been counting this down for a while, so when we saw that the time had come we had our camera handy. We've driven a lot in this car since we got married. We've made multiple trips to Spokane, countless trips to Albany, a trip to North Dakota, a trip to Orcas Island (via ferry ... the car doesn't go well under water), and a trip to Disneyland. When Melissa got the car three and a half years ago it had 130,000 miles on it. So, we've put 70,000 on it in that time. It's our only car so it has seen a lot of use, especially commuting to and from work each day. Now, that we've moved to campus though I think she'll see a lot less driving. Still, with all those miles on her she's still running well and I'd say she has another 200,000 in her (knocking on wood).

She's still got life in her

Congrats! It's a beautiful thing -knowing you spend so much of your life behind a steering wheel. :)
