Springfield,MO

It appears that we are stuck in Springfield once more. Yesterday when J took off driving, his plan was to get to Springfield to have them look at the trailer and the windshield and for us to then head on out to Laredo. As we all know, things don't always go according to plan.

J made it to Springfield and found the guy in the yard that he needed to take a looka t the trailer. He was working on another trailer and had J unhook the trailer we had so he could get to it next. I guess as he was unhooking the trailer, he realized that our front passenger road lamp, headlight and marker lights weren't working. Thinking it was just the bulbs, he went and got bulbs from the shop. Not wanting to replace them at that moment, he went to park to wait for the trailer to be finished. About two hours later, he went to check on the fixed trailer and to hook up. When he was doing so he replaced the bulbs only to find out that when he took them out, they weren't broken and weren't out. Hmm Seems that we have some kind of electrical problem. He talked to the guys in the shop about it but they are backed up and besides they said that they don't do electrical work. Therefore we are stuck here in Springfield to get this stuff fixed and are now in the freight black hole.

On the bright side we will get to watch the Superbowl AND see all of the commercials. This is the first Superbowl I have seen in several years so I am excited!
