When we lived in Temple City we had a house/cabin in Coulterville. I was around 5 when our Jeep died. The fan belt broke and sent the fan through the radiator. We spent over 5 hours in Selma waiting for it to be fixed. All I can remember (other than mom freaking out when she saw what she thought was smoke billowing from the hood) is that it was verrry hot and extremly boring.
In January I spent an extra 5 hours behind the wheel due to snow in Castaic. We were heading home from DLR and ended up having to go out to 101 and back to 166 to get around it. David was driving Dawn's truck and I was driving my Blazer. I was going to do anything to NOT be stuck with her kids overnight. |

 That's exactly what hapened to us!!! We were in a Ford van (the old kind with the motot INSIDE between the front seats!) when it happened. The smoke filled the van. We had left the house at some ungodly hour and were in the desert at just about sunrise, then poof! My dad hitched a ride into town, we got towed as soon as the auto shop opened. Then it took 11 hours to fix because when they got it done and test drove it, it wasn't right and had to do it again.What a way to start a family driving vacation, in a small waiting area in a auto shop in Needles with 3 young kids and nothing to do for 11 hours!

There's another name to add to the list of Cali city names that come up on the screen during the Soarin' pre-show...  |

There's an antique shop in Gorman, just across from the Carl's Jr.
See? There's always something to do. |

I keep seeing this thread title as "I'm Stuck in German," like you received a brain injury and now only speak auf Deutsch.

In which cast the title would be "Ich bin auf Deutsch gesteckt".
