Monday, March 22, 2010 - A Day at the Auto Repair Shop

Headed out early to the auto repair shop, arrived just after they opened. Five hours and $1500 later the van had all new brakes and rotors, and a whole new bearing assembly on the right front wheel. Not what I wanted to hear, but with almost 100k miles, I guess some repairs are going to be necessary in the coming year. Hubby still feeling pretty shook up, but nothing's broken and we managed to keep the bruising down to a minimum with the immediate ice pack. Got as much preliminary packing done as we could, since we have to leave early tomorrow morning.
