Goodbye, Buzz...

Yesterday was a sad day for the Brown family. We said goodbye to our dear little Buzz. He was such a cute little guy. We'll really miss him....really.



What happened, you ask? We don't know exactly. What we do know is that Jim was driving the Buzz down the highway when he heard a pop (and promptly lost "power"). He glanced in the rear-view mirror just in time to see a few flames come from the hood (because VW motors are in the back). Wisely, he pulled onto the shoulder, grabbed the few belongings in the car and left our dear Buzz to his fate.

How sad he was when he called to share what he beheld. Sigh. Poor Buzz.





Still, we know that it is God who gives all good things....and it is God who takes them away. We will continue to trust in God's goodness and say, "Blessed be the name of the Lord."

Oh Dear Lord,

We are so thankful that you are alright. Even though we know you love your "Bugs", we love you much, much more.

God bless all of you,

Hello my friend. I'm truly grateful to our Lord that you are safe. I do mourn with you over the lost of Mr. Buzz. It is a sober moment that another great classic has been laid to rest.

Fahrvergnügen meaning "driving pleasure"; originally, the word was introduced in a Volkswagen advertising campaign in the U.S., one tag line was: "Are we having Fahrvergnügen yet?").
