Friday Update

 The Odyessy drove fine yesterday so this afternoon I ventured out to our favorite old school fruit and veggie place to get some canteloupes.  I got my melons, only to have the van not start.  I bet I tried 20 times.  I called AAA and they were there within 15 minutes.  And a friend up the road was there even faster to take me back home.  I already had an appointment at the shop for Tuesday morning, and they called me back to say they would hopefully get to it a day earlier.  Anyhoo, I got home safe and have the Ranger to drive in the meanwhile, and have our great friend up the road to come and get me when I need it.  So all in all, it could be a whole lot worse.
