Indi(watch me)go!

Indigo: my 2011Toyota Camry

As my son drove me north to pick up my new(ish) car yesterday, we were talking about vanity license plates. He wanted to know: "If you got a vanity plate for your new car, what would it say?"

I'm not planning to get a vanity plate but I had no problem coming up with an answer: Indigo. The car reminds me of a sleek, elegant blue bird, so I had made up my mind to call it Indigo before I even signed the papers.

Then I drove it home yesterday for the first time and I was greeted by a pair of indigo buntings fluttering around the trees at the end of my driveway. Indigo! Watch me go!
