Good bye Sue!


Hi folks,
yesterday was a sad and on the same time a lucky moment when we sold our car with the license plate 4 SUE 855. Sue took us from the West Coast of California to NY City without any problems. She ran 10 500 miles for us. Calculated an average speed of 50 mph we spent around 210 hours behind her windshield mostly having a nice view on beautiful landscapes and listening to groovy music.
Her new owner is a decent young man from Woodstock. At the latter some might think on the summer of love in 69. Yesterday the crazy California spirit which surrounded Sue for the last seven years met the love and spirituality of Woodstock (beside many esoteric shops there are a bunch of monks from Tibet living in a monastery on top of a nearby hill).
Like most people we were thinking that there are no such things like emotions in machines made of steel. But how can we explain what happened yesterday? Listen, a few weeks ago Sue decided that her right switch would not open the right window. We got used to it and it was no big deal for us as the left switch was still working. When we yesterday told Sue that a wonderful new owner would be waiting for her and that we would like her to work fine for him the right switch ... guess!
Right, it suddenly started working again.
We wish Josiah all the best with his new touchy car named Sue!

Happy special birthday greetings from the entire Sperling bird family in Eddersheim, Sabine ...
What a unique and special day and one time only, right?
Hope that both of you guys aren't overloaded yet with too many adventures, but from our part, we do enjoy reading and reading and reading.
Alrighty, where are you guys heading next and what about our initial plans for a phone talky talky? Do you happen to have any cell phone no so that we could schedule something on short notice?
Love
Frank, Marlies, Alina, Florian+Leonie
