Rides Around: A Car Named Helen

This feature in our Rides Around series is brought to you by Marie, who recently purchased her first car. 

There’s something about doing it by yourself. With it all, comes a whole meaning that’s more than just grease and metal and and an engine that runs.  It provides a whole new sense of self… Like a branch off of the tree of our existence; a new motive, a new purpose.  It’s not just because it’s a car that’s exciting and fun, it’s because it’s a direct learning experience comprised of patience and faith.

The Rig: 1987 Nissan Sentra
The Location: Rockford Bay, North Idaho
The Driver: A young lady learning to take off on her own
The Special Circumstance: The feeling you get when you saved up and made it yours
