Life on the road sure is filled with ups and downs. Murder Dog and I had a great day yesterday with our good friend Danilo Cuellar and his family. Once we parted ways with them, the plan was to drive over to PA and crash for the night somewhere close to the campground that we were going to meet the BipTwins at today.
Unfortunately, it was pouring, visibility was low, and the drive took longer than expected. Then, about 30 minutes out from our destination, we finally cleared the storm but the emissions light came on in the Element and we were suddenly not able to go over 55 mph. We managed to park safely for the night but I knew we were in for an adventure in the morning.
As luck would have it, where we landed ended up being about 6 miles from a Honda dealership. We got here first thing in the morning, gave our sob story, and the folks here were nice enough to squeeze us in despite their packed schedule. Now Murder Dog and I are wandering around this town waiting on the mechanics because we have no other place to go. At least it's not raining anymore...
