Yum, yum, in my tum!

Oh the places it's been!

It is a sad day for our family - tomorrow our most beloved and faithful van will be towed away.

Looking a little worse for wear!

We bought this van from a family member almost 10 years ago! 

It has taken us many places, carted around many missions teams, taken us to the hospital for the birth of children, brought children home from the hospital, moved many people to new places to live, survived camping trips (with kids using it as a tent),....oh the places it's been and the things it's seen!

Our poor van was slowly dying. It has been a bit hit-or-miss as to whether or not it would start up when we needed it. Unfortunately, we are not in a position where we can afford all the work that it would need besides the fact that the repairs would most likely cost more than the van is worth. The decision maker for us is that London has now introduced a 'Low Emission Zone' and we were given notice that our van doesn't meet the criteria. We would be fined (a hefty, daily amount) for driving our van from the 3rd of January 2012.

Therefore we are now having to say goodbye to our van and the Dryden family will now be without a vehicle for the foreseeable future.

We are thankful that London has a great transport system, and are trusting God to supply our needs for future transportation.

One of Levi's favorite things to do!
