Well, it's official now. The Miller's are suburbians! Dad made another venture to the autoauction, in hopes of getting that bigger dependable vehicle with 4 wd. With a lot of patience and nerves, dad watched one by one go by, only to stop bidding before someone else. Finally, the right one came by, a few years older "2002" then most of the dealers wanted to purchase. If you haven't been to an auction before, it is very fast paced, and you have to be carefull not to get caught up in the frenzy of the event. I have never spent $100 a second before and at such a high rate. I was in a bidding war with one other person and it was high paced adrenaline. I ended up successful and close to my price. I got an ok deal, but not a steal. Nevertheless, came away with what I intended to. Room for the additional kiddos.
Love your "new to you" burb. I want one too... We have 4 siblings adopted from Colombia. Best wishes for your pending adoption. -Anne
