Smile Roswell 2009...what a trip!!!

Okay first off let me say that this was one of the best weekends I have had in a LONG time!!!! Everyone was so nice and welcoming

BUT.........

Fiona didn't want to cooperate at all, she started acting up Tuesday afternoon (the first day of the trip), she stalled out twice, Wednesday she just kept loosing power , Thursday she did it AGAIN!!!!! and stalled out twice on Main St., Roswell, by this point I was so frustrated I started crying

On Friday I wanted to go to Carlsbad Caverns but as too afraid to drive my car because of how she had been acting, so I stayed with Danny, Tabitha, Shonnel and Al all day trying to figure out what was going on and we strolled around downtown...Let me tell you IT WAS SO MUCH FUN!!!!!...on the down side we did not find the fuel filter to go on Fiona

Saturday was show day and I was STILL worried about my car and Danny gave me some bad news, the parts place he had talked to the day before could not get the part I needed, so we "mickey moused" it by wrapping a rag around the filter and using zip-ties to hold it in place, it worked on Sunday

Monday we headed home from Globe and Fiona decided to start acting up again (she seemed to only do this when it got to be over 100 degrees outside ) so I had to take her to the dealer in Phoenix and stayed with my parent's friends I really wanted to go home to the beach, I missed the wind and being cold

I had to stay there until this morning but guess what I AM HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you EVERYONE who helped me out all weekend and I had such a great time hanging out with you guys I miss you already

So, other than my car being a brat I had fun, which is what counts right?? Oh and I got an award for her acting up Thanks guys

Anyone else wanna share their Roswell experience??
