Saying goodbye to Pearl
So, I'm saying my goodbyes to Pearl today. Pearl is my VW bus, and I've finally decided to sell her. This is a bittersweet moment. Today I'm selling my VW bus, Pearl. (She's named "Pearl" because that was Janis Joplin's nickname)I've had her since 1993, and traveled many places with her. We've been to lots of Rainbow gatherings, on consulting gigs in San Francisco, up and down the Rockies, to the Atlantic Ocean, the Pacific Ocean, and the Gulf of Mexico, too.I haven't been driving her much recently, and so it really became time to let her go. I have found a buyer who is about the age I was when I first got her, and he's "always wanted a VW bus". I think she's going to a good home.So, this is my tribute to Pearl, may she travel many new and exciting places and treat her new person well!

awwww I had no idea you had a bus! That's fantastic... I am so sad that you're selling her!!!And that LJ user pic is just too cute Acorn.:)
Thanks, hon!
Oh my the cute redheadedness of that LJ pic....Wish I would have known you had a VW bus... I am a VW lover myself and my Dad has been looking for a new bus to replace the one we have had for years....
Just like a redheaded stepchild...I didn't talk much about selling Pearl b/c until a few days ago, I wasn't convinced that I could do it. My buyer was so, well, insistent, that I finally gave in.Anyway, never sell a car to a friend, family, or friends' family...
So my buyer just drove away with her. I'm almost tearing up.Getting paid cash does soften the blow a little bit, though.
