Sleep didn't come easily last night. Today showed up anyway.
The campground manager connected his pickup truck to the TrailBlazer hitch and we got it back onto firm ground. There was front-end and some side damage. The engine started and ran fine.
We contacted a GM Superstore in Gorham. They agreed to take the TrailBlazer in right away and determine if it could be driven home. The Body Shop Manager (Chrissy) and Service Advisor (Brandon) were phenomenal. They offered a loaner vehicle and did everything they said they would do. We had a road-worthy vehicle within 5 hours. It isn’t fixed, but it should get us to Columbus.
We needed to find a way to kill time waiting for the repair. The service advisor recommended a great place for a late breakfast. The Moonbeam Café was a delight. Carol had a grilled blueberry muffin, scrambled eggs and home fries. Dick had a western omelet with homemade cinnamon raison whole wheat toast. Everything was wonderful. This meal brought something very nice to a difficult situation.
To make a long story short … we’re coming straight home. ETA is Tuesday at the latest.

| We're really grateful for this picnic table |

| This is a lonely site when you have no tow vehicle |

| This is like driving a car with no teeth |
We were really looking forward to touring the White Mountains. We need to come back. The temperature is dropping. It's below freezing on Mt. Washington. The first snow has fallen.
