It saw me through my first teaching job in Colorado and our big drive from Wisconsin to California via Colorado, packed to the gills with wedding gifts. We traded it in a few years later for our first family car, a light green Ford station wagon, that served us well for over 20 years and became a family legend. Fun memories, thanks!

It was a horrible color called Seafoam Green. It was a pale, pale green just this side of the ugly side of white.<br /><br />I ran it off the road, over a curb, between two trees and hit a brick wall on the first day I got my license. I slid on ice.<br /><br />After that Dad got me a bigger, heavier car -- a 1963 Ford Galaxy. <br /><br />My favorite car ever was my Honda CR-V. It was a true and faithful companion for 12 years. Someday, my new car (a Subaru Forester) will hopefully have good memories and become a favorite.<br /><br />Your Honda was a nice spiffy color.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3648176637241188381.post-19694376339686740682013-01-07T09:53:47.574-07:002013-01-07T09:53:47.574-07:00I remember your Honda.
The first car I purchased...I remember your Honda. <br /><br />The first car I purchased on my own was in Japan - a Honda sedan with the steering wheel on the right. Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18296050573667055406noreply@blogger.com
