So, I'm on day two of my move from Montana to Florida. Everything went well yesterday -- the minivan didn't die going over the Continental Divide, we had a rockin dinner in Sheridan, Wyoming, and I never cried once (I cried often in the days leading up to our departure).
Today, is a different story. We left Sheridan just fine, but when we were 20 miles outside, Chris turned to me and said, "I don't know how to tell you this, but...your car has problems." Ah, yes, music to my ears.
We pulled off the interstate -- Exit 182B, in case you're ever in Casper -- to an Exxon station at this corner:
Yes, the intersection of English Drive and English Avenue.
Whilst pondering how a city runs out of street names, we took a little look-see to find out just what kind of problems we were dealing with.
Afterwards, a cigarette was most definitely in order.
And then a little phone call was made, and I got to wave goodbye to all of my belongings. Yay!
Apparently, there's something very wrong with my transmission. We're not quite sure what yet, but I may have to start looking through the "help wanted" ads depending on how long it takes to fix this thing. In the meantime, the Parkway Plaza on West E Street, Casper, Wyoming, is my new home. It's almost like Florida...
