Happy Birthday, Newport Blue Pearl!

File this under, how could have I forgotten what day this is? Today marks ten years since I drove my brand new Outback home. She has ninety-eight thousand and some miles on her. We have been on many adventures together, as far south and east as Atlanta, Georgia, and as far north and west as Seattle, Washington. A rock flung by a large truck on my last leg into Tucson last month made a new windshield necessary, but she is mostly original parts. I will drive this car til I have to leave her by the side of the road, or until gasoline becomes obsolete, whichever comes first. Here's to the next ten years and the next ninety-eight thousand or so miles!
