Just north of Charleston, SC

Was pretty much a driving day today. Drove out of a blizzard in
Richmond thru NC and into a national forest north of CHarleston - Buck
Hall.

But no day would be complete without some sort of drama. Laptop took a
dive off the table after an especially big bump. It's fine but our
cell modem is wrecked. Elena and I have scoped out all AT&T stores
nearby and will see about picking up a replacemt on Monday. In the
meantime I'm on my iPhone with my right index finger so forgive the
short posts

The other drama is that the pin that holds the tow dolly "up" during
towing fell out somewhere on the trip. I kept hearing this faint metal
grinding noise each time we went over a bump and finally figured out
why. Fortunately had a spare pin fr the bike rake and jury rigged it
onto the dolly. No damage to the car but the dolly's wheel ramps
probably have a bit less paint on the ends.

Hey, it ain't a BIG trip til something expensive breaks.... And that
hasn't happened yet.

Looking for 50+ degrees and sun tmrw.
