December 4, 2012 – the trailblazer is no more
Yesterday, a nice man came and took the Trailblazer away. Well, actually, I had to drive it to Vernon for him, but it sounds better the first way. It’s going into semi-retirement, as he will be parking it at his lakeside cottage in Ontario, and it will only be used in the summer for trips to and from the lake. An honorable semi-retirement, kinda like the one we are all looking for!
Deb sold it through an ad on Kijiji. On our first day posted, we received a call from a man in Lumby who wanted it for his 9-month pregnant wife. That evening, we got a call from a guy in Kelowna who advised us that our truck was now listed with a car dealership in Kelowna, and within a day, it was also being advertised in the States! Gotta love Kijiji…. We got the bogus ads pulled, but holy cow, it’s the Wild West out there!
So, I’m sitting here looking at an empty parking space, which feels kind of weird, but now we have room for our new (to us) truck that we hope to drive home from Calgary in the spring! We’re determined to get back into the RV-thing, and getting rid of the Trailblazer was Step One; the new truck will be Step Two, and hopefully Step Three, the new (to us) travel trailer, won’t be far behind.
Three More Sleeps.
