my buddy craig and I slept in the mcdonalds parking lot until the napa across the street opened in the morning,
meanwhile i was texting speedy, and they were also behind us, they stopped and wendell had had enuf driving for the night, so they stayed with us, and took us to an advanced auto when the napa didn't have my part, we were back on the road within a 1/2 hour,
