A few weeks ago, we decided that we needed a new van. Our old trusty 1999 Mercury Villager was getting on in miles(over 143,000), and rusting more than we liked, and our confidence in taking it on long trips was dropping. So, when Cyndi and I got a new van, we both thought that instead of using the Villager as a trade in or selling it, we would donate it, and we would specifically donate it to Rochelle. She doesn’t take long trips, and we promised to maintain it for her(Adam was excited about this part). So, the kids and I spent the better part of a Sunday and cleaned the heck out of it. Wash, vacuum, windows, cleaning the vinyl, floor mats, etc. Then we gave it to her. She has been without a vehicle for some time, and, always active in her church, recently has needed a vehicle, specifically a van, for hauling church stuff around for outreach. Sometimes, things work out just fine.
