As it turns out, Hunter and I ran to Walmart on Saturday and when we went to get back into the van it failed to start. After having two unsuccessful experiences with jump starting it, the tow guy showed up. He was able to tweek a connector and get us going. Sunday morning it would not start again, but that afternoon it did. Weird...... Well took it to Honda Service first thing Monday morning. After many hours, they told me that there was nothing wrong with it.
Hmmmm.... does that mean that I am just crazy and it is normal for a van to not start for any apparent reason?!?!? Drove it home and got busy making some jam and trying to get packed. When I went to run some errands...... oops 8:00pm ...... guess what. Yup.... van did not want to start , but with a little begging, (okay, maybe it was perhaps some bad words escaping my mouth. :0 ) it ran long enough to get Bryan and I to Auto Zone. Well a funny thing happened, when they did a battery test it was bad and had to be replaced immediately. Needless to say I was less than thrilled. But since we were now in business I only ranted and raved for a few more hours.
After a lovely drive in the wind and rain..... WE HAVE ARRIVED in St. George. This is the first stop in our fun summer adventure. When I had to change the reservation, due to the van, the hotel did not have the room available that I needed. The poor guy felt sorry for us!!! Guess what he did...... He upgraded us to the two room family suite with a jetted tub. You would have thought the kids had never seen one before. It was awesome!!! We ordered in some Dominos and now we are settling down for some lovely shut eye. Or at least that is what I keep telling the kiddos.... Good night friends!!! May your dreams be peaceful and happy!!!
