Farewell to the Orange Truck

At the end of the summer, we were sad to say good-bye to the Orange Truck. This used to be the signature icon of the Ning Family in the SF Bay Area. People used to see the truck from afar and say, "Look, there go the Nings!!!"

With 3 cars in the family, it was time to get rid of 1. Though we tried posting it for weeks in the Bay Area on craigslist.org, we decided to take it to CarMax where they gave us a fair price for it. Of course we took it to the dealership in Phoenix, and Susie was able to take the boys on a road-trip to visit family. First Stop was the Owen's in Santa Barbara.

Simon loves playing with Grace. When he saw this picture (months later) he still said her name because he remembers how much fun she is.


Miles was able to spend some time with his twin-cousin Annie Owen (both born on the same day). Can you tell which one has a red-head for a mother? Oh wait...they both do.

It was a hot day in Phoenix when Simon went to visit his Great-grandmother "842". He was glad to have his sun-hat and eat Ritz crackers.
