Yeah, chuck that was another guy. I just have the backend loaded up as much as the pathy can take.

Billy- they changed which hospital I'm going to so I'll be in a hotel for a while till I do find something. Looks like I'll probably be in the Torrance and redondo beach area. Might still look for something outside that area.

As far as the trip so far, ran into snow and ice in memphis tn, where poorly cleared the interstate. Saw several overturned semis due to the weather. We hit little rock, ar by dark but started hitting solid ice. Spun out going 15 mph on some ice right in front of a de-icing truck. Lucky the sob was paying attention or I would have been t-boned. Whew. We stopped for the night and made up time yest to get to Albuquerque. 14 hours of driving is not fun. That drive was decent except for the dense fog from Oklahoma city to amarillo,tx. Nothing more nerve racking than 200 feet of visibility going 70mph down the road for 300 mi or 5 hours!!

Haha. About to leave and headed for flagstaff az and the grand canyon.
