And So it Continues...

I forgot to mention that when we got home from our weekend trip we had a nice gift in our mailbox from the state of South Carolina. They gave us a ticket for running the toll plaza. Yes, the toll plaza where we were hit by a truck because the ever so intelligent toll plaza workers changed the go light to red while we were in the lane. Anyway, they had given us a receipt to hand to the toll plaza worker so that we would not have to pay the toll (after all, $2 is sufficient compensation for the inconvenience we went through because of their carelessness). After all that, they then tell us we in fact ran the toll booth without paying and sent us a ticket. Isn't that nice! Well, after he calmed down, Brian decided to call and be nice and explain the situation. Thankfully, they took care of it for us so we don't have to pay it. However, Brian was sure to get the guys name because I am not confidant this is done :)

What a joke! They are lucky that you guys didn't send them a bill for all you went through!

Crossing my fingers that they don't error yet again and you get another lovely bill in several months....
