And there she goes...

Nearly three years ago we said goodbye to the family maruti 800. The good old car that taught me how to drive. It belonged to my grandfather and I was sad to see it go. But its time had come, I guess...

Today, we said good bye to our Accent. Also a family old hand and another brilliant car. A car I drove all the way to Nanital within two months of us getting it, a car that I took out on weekends when Dad was not around, a car that made you feel the pep in good old huge petrol engines. Like the maruti, I drove it more than anyone else in the family. 

We had it for a short while and almost appropriately there is hardly a picture with it. I headed for a quick workout today and I knew it was going to be gone soon. I wanted a picture with it but no one was around to click one. I whipped out the phone and took a quick one which is attached here. It's blurry, but beautiful.

I read zenhabits.net a lot. Leo says store few memories and if any, let them be digital. I agree, hanging on is not good. But this post and picture is good for this beautiful dimpled beauty. May she run many more with the new guy. He's a lucky man...
