Cape to Carlisle

6 p.m.: Today we drove halfway to Asheville. My plan was "up at 5 out by 6. Well, it was more like up by 5, out by 7. It took me a while to pack the car. The drive went smoothly, except that the "check engine" light went on an hour from home. It happened right after a fillup, so I assumed it was the problem that happens when the fuel cap is not attached correctly. But I fixed that and the light persisted. I check the oil and everything I could think of, but the van runs just fine. So we decided to keep on going, and we made it the 500 miles to Carlisle without incident. We got to our favorite Days Inn by 5:30.
