You Broke Down Where You Say??


Well, we get to Vegas airport and get our Dodge Grand Caravan (what could go wrong when you rent something you already have, right??)..WELL here's what can go wrong..you head yourself to Death Valley National Park and at every stop light for 15 miles before the entrance your car suddenly and very violently just dies!! You restart it, thinking it's a fluke..well after the 6th time, you begin to wonder if going into the hottest place in the country is a WISE idea with a less-then-stellar rental vehicle. You would say, "No, let's not" for fear of the ghastly,and deathly possibilities of trying to survive in Death Valley with no water, wearing flip flops, and no sunscreen. Yet, the Strommers say WHY NOT?? Hey, at least if we die, Destinee's hair will be pretty, right!!?? That's all that matters........................................isn't it?? ;)
Well we do make it through the park and have to go all the way BACK to the airport and get a replacement.

I am still glad you backtracked some to get a better van - it made the next 10 days so much better. Remember, Death Valley was YOUR idea but I am glad you got to see and enjoy it. I plan on going there too - about October!
