Compounding my recent unemployment and reversal of fortune, today I discovered a rather aggressive oil leak in my 2004 VW Jetta TDI. Not willing to risk a temporary fix, we are being towed to the dealer in Bangor, ME for a new oil pan and whatever else they find damaged.

My only thought was: If I was only back in Americus, Georgia, with Ken's ramps and our mutual great welder/brazer, I wouldn't be out the $1000 deductible I'll have to pay.

Without tools and a pit and a welder, life can change in a big hurry. Only 1600 miles from home.
