Desolee!
Taking grandson up to the Dragon for his "initiation" into the myseries of sports car and curves (roads that is!). Got a batt light enroute, right from the git go. I said "OK, 3 y/o deep South battery, get another one". In and out of the local AZ in 20m.
60 miles up GA-5 past Ellijay, bad things begin happening. Got it turned about and into a parking lot. Took 2-1/2 hours, but finally got my service to tow me to Ellis in ATL.
I suspect the alternator (and I hope that's all). Worst part: the grandson, good sport, missed this day. We were doing some serious one-on-one 'tinkering and driving', and we were both pretty excited.
Bummer.
So, when we got home in the rental Dodge Neon (all car deities, PLEASE forgive me), I took him to see Pirates III.
Not all was lost, and we still had fun hanging out. He got to see an adult NOT loose his temper. I had a fine day with grandson.
Now, PIZZA!
There'll be other days. Please deities, release InTTruder back into my hands soon!
