We got a phone call from Carl at 1030 am saying our car was done and that he'd be there to pick us up soon. We loaded the car and hoped and prayed that we could either 1) get within 100 miles of our destination so if we broke down we could use our 100 mile tow or 2) get within an hour of Jim and Lisa's house because if we broke down there would be SOMEONE to come and get us. We didn't have to depend on either because we made it in one piece, two alternators later. We rolled in about 230 and I must have looked ridiculous because as soon as we parked I got out of the car and danced my little heart out. Every success deserves a happy dance.
We walked to the bus stop after reviewing our damage and unloading the beast. Lucas got off the bus and barely acknowledged us. I don't blame him. He was told multiple times that we'd be there just to be disappointed later that day. Emma was with a friend so she wasn't as interested that we were there. Plus she had already given up, remember?
So we're here. Finally.
