Long days night
Remembered I forgot to arange for hotel space, decided to zip over to my parents place after dinner (a mere 4 hour drive). Enroute to dinner, got pulled over by a nice police officer who informed me I had a headlight out (I was a padiddle according to an old college driving game - the driver’s-side headlight was out). Got a ticket for the officer’s troubles (my PA tag is so new it is not in the NY database yet (same with my new PA license), so I almost got arrested for his trouble too) as well as directions to the nearest parts store.
Fixed headlight - wow, I can see much better now! - missed dinner with all the f@rting around and drove the four hours anyway (got in at 11pm). Hung around with Dad for a goodly bit (Mom woke up long enough to say hi & chatt briefly) then took a three hour nap. Got up at oh dark early and boogaloo’d four hours back.
