That's no picnic...

Aargh.... prevented once again from joining the East Bay family picnic, this time thanks to an automobile breakdown. Our family was loaded in our red minivan.... had stopped to buy supplies, then gasoline, then was about to head towards the freeway around 2:30pm when the transmission began slipping. I pulled it over. We were less than a mile from home, so I walked back, picked up the other car and some transmission fluid, and headed back. With the additional, cool oil, it re-engaged. Enough to nurse it over to our mechanic, whose shop was conveniently only a block away, and drop it off.

But no picnic.... James in particular is disappointed, he had brought his drumsticks. Oh, well... anyone know of any good sushi places in the South Bay?

Sheesh! I'm sorry you didn't manage to make it to the picnic today.

I hope that whatever's wrong this time is quickly and cheaply fixed.

Thanks! We went elsewhere, but those are good future candidates :-).
