North Carolina come on and RAISE UP.
So the ride down was enjoyable. Waiiiiiiit a minute.
Start time... 7:30 AM
11:30AM- Jillian's car wants to explode: Car starts smoking, power steering goes, get off at next exit.
11:40AM - Jillian's car is at a mechanic in the center of the Bronx. Thinking positively.
12:00AM - Jillian's turpentine belt looks like a dog has chewed on it for hours. Jillian's upper radiator hose is completely cracked at the end. Jillian's radiator has no water.
1:00PM - Mechanics name is Justin. He is black but talks like he is Jamaican. He is funny. He gets out a booklet with the "map" of my cars belt. He is confused. Stupid Swedish cars.
1:30PM - Justin knows what to do! He has to unscrew ONE BOLT in order to replace the belt.
1:32PM - Belt is ordered.
1:33PM - A new hose is cut and put on to replace the cracked one.
1:48PM - The belt arrives
2:00PM - Justin is having some trouble with the bolt! Silly Justin.
3:00PM - Jillian walks with her mom, Jarrod, and Cody to a place with a bathroom so Jarrod can shit.
3:20PM - Finally find a place off of Third Ave, New York style pizza, it was good.
3:30PM - Back, JUSTIN GOT THE BOLT OFF, but broke the bolt and it's threader in the process.
3:40PM - Justin can't get the new one on.
4:30PM - Oh Justin.
5:00PM - Bolts on, now all we have to do is put the pieces back together!
5:30PM - Checking fluids, and we're off! DAMAGE DONE? $250
In the in between times we also found a baby cat that was the owners who looked like it went through WWII. It stratched my nose and now I have aids and mites. Once we got back on the rode we drove until about 8:30 and then stayed in a hotel in Maryland and then did the rest of the drive Sunday. Ader.
