Jesse and I left my house around 6:30 am to head to his work then go camping. We were so excited. It all started out great. We got shipping finished on the way to get gas and munchies for breakfast. We headed towards Prescott, listening to awesome music and talking. We finally get close and as I am driving up this really scary road with blind turns I am freaking out, much more the Jesse thought. Only to get the great camp grounds with beautiful trees and cold weather to find out its closed. So we drove to the ranger station that was closed on the weekend… what the fuck? I start getting frustrated because I am pissed nothing was going right and I didn’t want to waste all my gas.
So I sucked it up Jesse got me smiling again for a little while. We drove through three towns and no camping anywhere. Drove through dumb constuction. To get 40 miles out side of flagstaff. A semi almost ran me off the road and it started raining. Being me I turned off at the next exit, I hate rain and I hate big trucks. We find an awesome spot to camp. But it was raining and we were stuck in the car for about an hour. After the rain, it was beautiful out and everything seemed to be all better. No worries. A couple rangers come up and tell us to blow out our candle “OFF candle” to keep the bugs away. It didn’t work anyways, it was a problem. And they told us to smoke in the car.
We had a good time, drinking a few beers, having fun out in the woods and finding bones. We got drunk and I called a ton of people on my phone being a dumbass. It wa s all good. The camping part was the best. Me and Jesse took a long walk the next morning before we left and found some old bottles, cool bugs and cute bunnys. And picked up other peoples trash, it pisses us off when people don’t pick there shit up when they leave the woods.
We are all pack up around 11am and I put water and oil in my car, like dad said. We head down the dirt road through what looks like a country side in Colorado. Took some pictures. Then, THEN… my car over heats and started smoking everywhere. We pull over and let5 me car cool down and stop smoking. We had to stop and go about 9 times to go about 24 miles. Some people on quads pulled over half way through the dirt road and said they would go get us some antifreeze. We make it to the real road and the people on quads show up with fluids for the car and water for us and they wouldn’t let me pay them. They even followed us to Williams the town. M6y car seems to be fine. Until we get on the free way. It starts smoking again. So I pull over and it just looked like my oil leak had leaked onto something hot and was burning off that not bad. It stopped smoking and we finally got to flagstaff to eat and get oil just in case me would need it on the way home.
We are all good a full and get monsters for energy and head home. Only to get about 45 miles out of flagstaff to me car over heating and smoking horribly. By this time we are not thinking much of it, it just needs water (that was didn’t have) haha and the oil was just burning off the engine somewhere. NOT THE CASE AT ALL, my car was on fire and antifreeze was all over the road. I start crying again and I called my dad and he said he would be out there as soon as he could be. Meanwhile me and Jesse are sitting on the other side of the guard rail on the I17 in our new camping chairs, hes trying to calm me down and he was freaking out himself but didn’t tell me. What a good guy. My dad finally gets there around 8pm only to take his battery out of his truck to tell me my car is fried which I already new and I was already trying to figure out how im going to get a new car which I still don’t know. Then my dads truck wouldn’t start. Now everyone is in a not so good mood. We call AAA and they tell us that it was going to be $300 to me car home and they called back and said $200. We waited for the tow truck until about 10:30pm and I have had to pee since 6pm and finally on our way home. I find out I am sunburned really bad on my left shoulder and neck.
Fun trip huh? So now I am stuck wondering how im going to get a new car and how im going to get to the dealerships, then figure out how my dads going to cosign he wont take me…. Im soo stress out I might loose me job as well.
