Then he pointed to the postcard %u2014 instead of the Kendallville Middle school, it was addressed to the Kendallville Mental School. We agreed it did seem like an asylum at times. As the school year wound down, we paid off the loan to Lynn%u2019s dad for her Nova, as well as the bank note my dad had co-signed for my MG. Lynn never liked the lemon-colored Nova so, in late April, she traded it for a new %u201873 Ford Pinto Runabout. It was more fun to drive and sportier looking, and we both enjoyed that metallicgreen Pinto a great deal. With a rear hatch that opened up, it was almost like a truck, and we occasionally treated it like one. After paying the $500 difference between the Nova and the Pinto in cash, we had no debts %u2014 and were in perfect financial shape to start an adventure.
