On The Road Again
Friday, March 4, 2011 at 3:48PM 
After two months of hitching rides, walking to the grocery store in the cold and generally being immobile we are back on the road!
A friend of a friend of a friend, or someone to that affect, very generously donated a car to us. Of course, we were reminded pretty quickly that there's no such thing as a free car — the registration, insurance, and various mechanical fixes all add up — but it was a wonderful gesture and it sure beats walking.
The car is a 2001 Volvo V70 XC (pictured … sort of). The XC stands for Cross Country (apparently the Swedes don't know how to spell) and with any luck we might actually get to drive it across the country before we head home. Or at least through a river.
