My newest baby

With winter on it's way I knew I needed something more than my little Toyota truck. I bought the truck in California and it served it's purpose there. It got me where I wanted to go and it was plain enough that it wouldn't be stolen like the car it was replacing. My life has changed since then and I needed something with more than a bench seat and 2WD. I shopped for months looking for the perfect vehicle and kept coming back to the Honda Element. It is AWD and has a rubber floor for easy clean up. The seats fold up and out which actually gives me more room than the back of my truck.

I also had the issue of registration that needed to be dealt with. California holds the title on vehicles until they are paid off. My mom was my co-signer, so I had to deal with New York, California, and a co-signer in Minnesota. I has been turned away from the dmv for not having the proper paperwork enough to know transferring my truck to New York was not going to be easy. I was driving on California plates for two years and the registration had expired months ago.

I saw this 2008 model with only 10k miles and a great price and I knew I had to act quick. She is now mine and her name is Woot.








The real reason I bought this car:

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween! I always complain that Trick or Treaters don't come out to the house because it is in the middle of nowhere. We found a solution to that problem this year. Tonight we are volunteers at the Zoo Boo at the Syracuse Zoo. We will get to see all the kids in their costumes and the zoo animals. We are hoping the weather holds up tonight.

Here is a video of part of our family doing the Monster Mash. My mom even made an appearance with her Don King hair.
