Today we went to Clinton Township a few miles from Detriot to a doggie play date for my wife's dog.. Everything went fine there........
On the way home it stated raining, well it was raining on the way there. When we came out it was still raining a little. Then it started raining harder, we got a lot of spray from the cars passing us. All the sudden the wipers stopped at attendtion. Other words stright up and down. I turned them off and back on again, no luck they wouldn't go back on. Rain stopped a few minutes after that, then all we were getting was spray from passing cars. We made it home okay, my wife took her dog in so it could go potty, hadn't gone all day.
Then my wife wanted to go and eat at a resturant, on the way to there it started raining harder. The water was blowing off the window earlier, raining harder while we were out this time. About had a heart attack when I looked at the gas gage, it was on empty. Had to continue and get some gas in the van. Got gas and went to a resturant and ate. Pulling into the parking space I hit the curb, couldn't see where I was going..
Didn't get to go to the place to eat we were heading to though, food was as good where we ate.
It was still raining when we left after we ate, drove home real slow, glad we only lived 2 miles from the resturant. Now I have to take the van to get the wipers fixed tomorrow.
The truck should be done tomorrow too. Hope they can fix the van while i wait.
