Car freedom

For the first time since 1998, we don't have a car payment.  As of Sept 22, the Matrix is paid for.  And for the first time ever, I had a car warranty expire on time rather than distance.  The 5yr/200,000km warranty expired at 5 years and 198,000km.  Last Saturday the Matrix did roll over to 200,000km or 0.2 gigameters on the way to visiting Mom at the bird sale in Innisfail.



The bird sale was cold this year, even colder than usual.  The sale was slow too, so Mom packed up early and spent more time visiting her friends Helen & Paul.
