Towed

7/31/07 continued
Well, since the first towing companyt fell through, the second one did
much better. Stan showed up right at 6 PM like they said he would and
we got loaded and on the way in about 1/2 hour. That still wouldn't
give us enough time to get to the dealer by 7 though so I knew I was
stuck for the night. Stan and I talked about deer hunting, volcanoes,
durg abuse, etc all the 55 miles back to the interstate and then the
12 miles south to Longview, WA. When we pulled into town, he drove by
the dealer I was going to just to see if anyone was there but it was
dark so no go. The boss, Jerry, was there when we pulled in. He lives
close to the shop and he offered to let me sleep in his motorhome that
he keeps there. He also suggested that I just see if they'll sell me
the part and I can install it at his shop. He even had some
suggestions on how to get the part here from Portland if they have to
order it. It seems like I should have some options for tomorrow
morning but we'll see then.
For now, I'm at a local bar sipping a brew and having a chicken sandwich.
