From the Land of Sky Blue Waters

No, this isn't a blog about Hamms Beer. It's a blog about me, Anne. I'm a Montana girl who now calls Minnesota home. I'm missing the mountains and my family but loving the lakes and Peter. I wanted a way for everyone to keep tabs on me. So voila mon blog.

The Newest Member of the Welton Fleet

The newest member of the Welton Fleet is waiting to be picked up in Prescott, Wisconsin tomorrow morning. I am so excited!!! Of course I'm still sad about the fate of my Blazer, but now I will have a new car to take care of and love :) And tonight I get to get rid of my hated rental: a Dodge Neon. I feel like I've been driving a golf cart. Scary on 494 and the 35s.

It's a 2007 Chevy HHR, silver, fully loaded. Now I will experience the awesomeness that is Onstar and heated seats, and a sunroof, etc.

I have a few people to thank (in no particular order): my dad, who provided information, advice, support, and sweet contacts with Chevrolet; Pete Kelly, who is the nicest guy at a car dealership anywhere (he does fleet sales at Karl Tyler Chevrolet in Missoula) and found me a car and arranged to have the paperwork all go through Missoula (I get to keep my MT plates!!); and Pete Ryan, for a shoulder to cry on and all the research he did. Thanks so much to each of you for taking such good care of me!!

    Yeah Anne! You'll love having a new car...especially when it's loaded with every option. Now you'll never settle for anything less.

    Way to go! Buying a new car is always scary and exciting. I really don't rememeber what it's like, considering the last "used/new to me" car I bought was almost 9 years ago.
