Sitting in a Familiar Spot

Well, here I sit in the automotive repair shop, awaiting a diagnosis on my car, in anticipation of a chase day. I was hoping to catch a few storms on my way home through western Kansas today, but first have to get my car repaired.

Yesterday, after letting the car sit, it started just fine, not once, but 4 times. It did finally die though, so I'm guessing the alternator has flaked out. I'm not very comfortable with getting car repairs so far from home, but have no choice. It's not like I can band-aid it to make the 600 mile trip home.

So, after they get the battery charged, they'll be able to run a diagnostic on the alternator and hopefully in a couple of hours, I will be on my way.

I did have an awesome trip to Colorado. I went to a Cinco De Mayo Party, had lunch with my brother, sister, niece, and their families, and just enjoyed a great day.
