dear shiny black subaru,
i couldn’t let you go without sharing a few of your accomplishments with my friends
::
she took us to nine different states.
she took us to maple canyon, jackson hole, the snake river, logan canyon
(and all of those other canyons i don’t remember the names of to rock climb)
she took jonah home from the hospital for the first time when i was a nervous wreck.
she took a real life beating from the tandem bike for our engagement pictures and NEVER complained once.
she learned to drive to logan all by herself while we got to sleep. (real talk)
she read 12 books to us. yes twelve. and they were bigg’ens.
she chose me over jon every time when the “heat wars” began.
ya know the ones where ginger believes the north pole is warmer than the car at the moment,
and jon is dramatically sweating to death and hardly manages
to get one word in every 29 breaths as he pants like a bulldog?

sidenote: dual temp air vents are my fav invention. {heat always wins}
she got me out of three speeding tickets.
she accidentally bumped into a real fancy car at the stop light and didn’t leave one bit of evidence.
she knows the secret route to neverland.
and my most favorite of all,
she is the dear home to those 3 special words that i heard from my cute husband for the very first time 4 lovely years ago.

i’m guessing we are going to miss you the next time we want to go camping. i’m also hoping we will still be accepted in slc abandoning you like this.
(every 3rd car we see in our neighborhood now days is Subaru)
BUT, just like all other worldly possessions, the fun eventually comes to an end…
…and life goes on.
thank you for the good times!
you be good for your new owners, ok?
it’s been real,
jon ging and lil j
ps i’m sorry we never gave you an official name. you should know that we’ve never really been into that kinda thang. we’ll save that for jonah’s little brothers and sisters.
