Our van's Life Book (PO was an adoption professional) resides in the driver's door pocket. I recently patched and recovered it when the spiral bound pages began to frag. 

Once again, lives are more important than stuff.

We had it since new and had a lot of great memories and trips in it ranging from the great lakes to the Southwest to California to Alaska and Canada. A bunch of other stuff including tractors and a car we're also destroyed but this is the only thing I really had an attachment to.
