Thoughts on a Day: Vans Again

March 8, 1991, Vans Again

We went early to the Jordan River Temple. It was a beautiful clear day. We attended a pleasant session for Chris and Margo's wedding.

Following, we were free for two hours before the luncheon. We drove towards Dale's house. We decided we would go up there and drive their van. As we went along state street we were enticed by a flag-waving advertisement which was on some vans at Hertz rental.

We stopped, yes, I told the man we were looking for a van, and we agreed on two things. It had to be either red or blue. There were four vans: two red and two blue. We were surely impressed with the prices. They had been rentals and were discounted.

We chose red because the Volvo interior is blue, and it was Jay's turn for color. We drove it to the mouth of Parley's Canyon and needed no more decision making. We picked Steven up at his classes and returned to the lot to firm up the sale

.

Yea! We have a van, and we will enjoy it. Plymouth Grand S.E. Voyager, just like Dale's. That was incentive to drive to Texas. It was a long way but we thoroughly enjoyed the trip. It was not too hot or dry. 

March 24.

We were there for Marne's birthday. We had a very enjoyable two days. We returned through Colorado and Moab, Utah. Some storms came along the way, but we ignored them in our new comfortable van. It is not important to love temporal things, but we come close to loving that van. Kate calls it the "Band" All the children enjoy it too.
