Looking back on my most recent driving adventure, I'm really happy with how it all went, even though sight-seeing was squelched by Mother Nature. I've added a hunk of miles to my tally... and have updated the score card accordingly. See below:
I've learned some things for next time!
1.Always take a sweater along.
2. Keep an umbrella in the car.
3. Speak up if things are not right...
...it usually pays off...
(It's the old 'squeaky wheel gets greased' lesson.)
[Now you are probably wondering about #3, so I'll fill you in.]
When I selected the Best Western Precottonian for my accommodations, part of the reason for my choice was that they supplied a wireless Internet connection in all their rooms. And I definitely wanted to be able to use my laptop.
When I checked in and got settled, I tried out my laptop and found that it worked just fine. Later, after dinner when I tried to use my computer,
there was no longer any network connection available to me. Oh well... that's just the way it is. [No, I don't think so.]
I called the motel manager who in turn called the Internet provider who in turn.... well you get the picture. In a matter of five minutes my connection was restored, and I had no more trouble with it.
Hooray for the squeaky wheel!
