Kaput

It was bound to happen sooner or later, but old reliable -- with 176,000+ miles on the odometer -- left me stranded on the side of the road this afternoon on the way home from Old Washington. The tow truck is en route, but there may not be much hope for this car. Add this to the refrigerator, the oven, and the sprinkler system that have all died this month. Gotta switch cars and get back up to Hempstead County for supper.
