Another Magical Day at the Spit

I find it difficult to not crack a huge smile when we are down at Whiffin Spit for a walk, this day was no exception, lots to watch, the best air to breathe, sun on our faces.

The Acura

It's about a week off fifteen years since we bought the RSX, and we had negotiated the price down from thirty-five thousand to one penny over thirty. It was an exciting time, and Karen ended up with the exact car that she wanted, the type of car that she had originally seen in the Oshawa car park one evening and she thinks we had been to the Keg.

Stats :
Picked up on the 21st March 2003, inclusive price was $30000.01 cash, it had been manufactured, in Japan, in May 2002.
One hundred thousand kilometres, two days ago.
In fifteen years, numerous oil changes of course, air filters, one set of Michelin tires, a new battery (long before the old one failed) several wiper blades, one fuse, zero bulbs replaced, zero spark plugs changed, one O2 sensor changed (and I still have the tools) and everything else is original.
Some rattles, some dings, some wear and tear, but the car still gives good gas mileage and is a very pleasant vehicle to drive and we hope for many more years of happy trails with it.
