Vanessa is home!

Thanks to the amazing automotive skills of Eion, Vanessa is ready to hit the road again.  She now has a second brand new Subaru engine, and at no expense to me.  The threads on one of the bolts holding the head to the block were stripped so she had developed a leak around the head gasket.  Eion found it and replaced the entire engine under warranty.  He also found a leak in the gas tank, and that was replaced as well. What an honest gentleman!  So she is as good as new.
Our plan is to drive her down the Washington, Oregon,  California coast at the end of May.  Then we will drive her to Alaska in September.  But first I have to drive her around town to break in the new engine.  It's good to have her home.

Thanks to Kristin and Eion for all they have done for us. They are the absolute best.
