Rescued... now off again
Whew. Stranded in the dark with kids and Pat on the shoulder of I-5 near Coalinga... for hours... that wasn't fun. The tow cost me $155 and truck showed up around 2am... he dropped us off at the next exit, with whatever we could unload while the car was still lifted. Fortunately there was a motel with a room available... we crashed for a couple of hours there.
Meanwhile... my sweetie rocks. I sent an SOS to![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)

I showered, changed, re-packed and then Les picked me up at 8:30am to go to SFO airport for my flight to Atlanta...
