When I moved to the US in late summer, I bought a new-to-me red car, a 2013 Hyundai Veloster. The red car and I are having lots of fun, whether in the city or country. Sometimes, we take BuBu, my German shepherd. The red car has three doors, a hatchback, good fuel economy and a sporty feel.

Welcome to Gumbo YaYa. My writings are an eclectic blend. A Louisiana gumbo is a composite dish of roux, rice and whatever else the cook wants to add. Yaya is a Creole term for ladies all talking at the same time. The Gumbo Ya-Ya features my writing on spirituality, travel, culture, and humor. Grab a bowl of gumbo here and dig in!

My, my, my. That’s quite a ride for a church lady. Never heard of that model, or of a car that appears to be missing the back door on the driver’s side.
I go a hipster church. We drink at the bar next door, we wear shorts in service, the men wear hats, the women have tattoos, and some of us drive cool cars. A fourth door would encourage guests to hitch a ride. We disapprove of hauling large numbers of people around like my truck and I did in Honduras.
The fur beast is quite photogenic. I don’t know what to say about snowmargeddon. It if makes you feel better we are studying Revelation at my church. I do know the plagues end. See song that I have linked to Felipe’s comment about my church. Good song, It will be alright.
Good choice amiga. I spotted that car when it was just a concept. If I needed a newer vehicle it would be on my short list – cool. My current car is red as well 😉
I drove a red Ford Ranger many years ago when I lived in Mexico. That was my only red vehicle before this one. I recommend the Veloster as it does get fantastic mpg on the highway, about 40 or more. I have the automatic but it has a sports mode that makes things fun.
Nice looking car. I read your replies. I can’t remember owning a bright red car. I had brownish/reddish (deep red? – not bright) once. Green, silver are good. The color is not important anyway.

The church sounds a little like, well, uh, you know, rehab.

We tend to attract those type of people. Here’s a piece I like that my pastor wrote. https://vimeo.com/107630717

I am quite moody. My moods are as changeable as the weather near the coastal waters where I live. Today, I felt good.

Bubu is the luckiest dog in Honduras, or at least formerly in Honduras. And I love the pictures of him in the car, which looks like a lot of fun.

Where a sled might be more appropriate right about now.

For the price, it’s a very good car. I am happy with it, although I saw the same car in gray a few days ago, and I liked it better. Less flashy.

They sell that car in Mexico? I’ve never seen one. And surely you don’t go to the U.S. to buy cars. Goodness, I hope not.

I saw a grey Veloster after I purchased this red one. I liked it much better. It was classy. It made my car look like a pimpmobile.
