The Wave

"There's a Jeep!" Heidi pointed out the minute we left the highway in Maine at the start of our vacation a few weeks ago. We had only been in the state for 30 minutes, but I was hungry and we had time to explore. "There's another one," she noted as we wound toward Kennebunkport. "Two more!" she reported a moment later. "They're everywhere!"

And it seemed like she was right. "Maybe Mainers keep Jeeps and vintage convertibles in their garages all year just to enjoy in the summer," I hypothesized, thinking how fun it would be to roll through the forests and along the coastal roads with the top down, enjoying the balsam and ocean breeze.

"But Jeeps would be good in the snow, too," Heidi replied. "Why did we ever get rid of my Jeep?" she asked wistfully.

We had our reasons at the time. But now? We have reasons to own another one, which is why we drove out to Maryland early this afternoon to pick up our new (used) Jeep.
