My road trip wasn’t exactly as planned

I recently was on a road trip with a couple of mates – we were just kind of going wherever, without a fixed plan or route – it was kind of like we would get to a junction and do ‘eenie meenie minee mo’ for left or right and stopped when we got hungry!

Of course, that was until the car broke down in Atlanta, GA. I had no idea where to go to get it fixed so I called my brother back home to see if he could find us a mechanic nearby and in about three minutes he had one. When the car broke down again in Buffalo, NY  I called my brother again and the same thing – I was very impressed. The third time it happened in St. Louis, MO  I thought it must be a bad sign and we should probably head for home, but my brother at least had a superfast mechanic located for us – it turns out he was using a just click local website which was like a massive directory of all the states and businesses within them – such a good idea, and got us out of three pickles in less than that many weeks!
