By September 1971 we are back home in Gainesville. We brought back the Volvo from Sweden and bought a second car, a station wagon. We did not have that second car long; on a road trip to see Newlin's brother Durrent and his family in Montgomery, Alabama, we were hit head-on by a drunk driver in Georgia. When the station wagon was repaired it did not align correctly and Arnie rejected it to replace it with a Buick sedan.
