Subject: RE: BS: THE GREENMAN MUDCAT TAVERN
Well guys I'm FINALLY back! We loaded up the car and headed to Greenville at 10:30am this morning. Everything was go, until 12:30pm, when we were about 15 miles outside Greenville. Various scary noises and difficulties steering forced me to pull off the road, expecting a flat tire. Turned out something got caught on the drive belt and chewed it up. We called up our Dad on the phone to come help us (he's a mechanic) but he was back in Jacksonville, 70 miles south. After 2 hours of waiting in the hot car with nothing to do on the side of the road with nothing around but fields of crops, our Dad found us. After 45 minutes of wrestling with the evil new drive belt, everything was back in working order, and he escorted us the rest of the way into Greenville. An adventurous day, to say the least! Glad I'm back, sitting in my swivel chair infront of my computer with BLOODY GREAT net connection again! Whhheee! BTW school starts tomorrow, arrrg!
