Aunt Violet, her dog, and her longtime companion heading out from Fort Wayne, IN to California. The photo was marked, "1937." That is Ivah looking out the window. See the Indiana farm in the background?
Aunt Vi always had a nice car. She loved to travel across country. Ivah had a brother in San Diego. They spent a lot of time there.
When I left in my AMC Gremlin for Michigan, Aunt Vi stood on her porch and said, "You will be back. Mom always said, we leave, but we always come home." I just smiled, knowing that *I* would never be back.
No matter how many people agreed that Aunt Vi and I were "two peas in a pod," I was very different from her in many ways. We were two peas, but never in the same pod.
Love that car!
