Riley and I decided to wash my car this past week since it was such a beautiful day. We had so much fun squirting each other with the hose. His favorite part was spraying the car and making it look shiny and new...well, newer. It's hard to make a '97 Toyota 4Runner with over 176,000 miles. It's a good vehicle and I wouldn't trade it...yet. Someday I'll drive a new vehicle again, but for now, this one has been serving me well. I got my car when we lived in upstate NY. It survived the winters of the northeast and then it came with us to PA and now to FL. I remember the day I got it: Oct. 8, 1996. Right off the ship from Japan! My next vehicle will hopefully be a Toyota Highlander with 3rd row seating so I can carpool kids to and from school. With Riley going to private school next year, we are going to try to make the 4Runner last until we're finished paying off Andy's Tundra...At least I'm not putting on the 50 miles a day like I was when I was working! It's about 6 miles to the beach!

We did the same thing you did on the same day I think. :) My kids LOVED me squirting them and then turning the hose on each other! I was washing our 1996 Honda Passport with 90 some thousand miles on it. Those Hondas and Toyotas LAST FOREVER!
