And we're off!

"Hello! My name is Inigo Winnebago, you killed my engine battery, prepare to die!"

This morning we replaced the battery that the six fingered man killed. The thing was deader than dead - no miracle in the name of true love (or "to blave") would have saved it. Just when we were all finally packed and ready to go yesterday night, we turn the key and...nothing. What a start to our trip. It wasn't necessarily a bad thing though, because there was a pretty big thunderstorm about half an hour later, which we would have been driving in if Inigo had started right up. And now we're on our way just a day later and it's beautiful out today.

Right now we're on our way to the Albany area, about halfway to Seneca Lake for the fourth of July. Rt. 2 is a really nice drive. Tomorrow I'll post my first food blog. This laptop/wireless internet thing we have going on is pretty sweet - we'll be connected pretty much everywhere we go!

Inigo fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well-known is this: Never go in against Wax when his road trip is on the line! HA HA HA...HA HA HA...HA HA HA----
Congratulations on overcoming your first obstacle!
