Tesla Crisis

 


On Sunday, we drove to Ogden for my cousin Peyton’s mission homecoming. We decided to take the Tesla and mapped out how many miles we would need to get there and how many miles it would take to get to a charger. Everything was fine until every charger north of Salt Lake was out of service and the Tesla eventually died in the Weber County Library parking lot next to a Tesla charger that wasn’t working.

No company would tow a Tesla and we were stranded in North Ogden. It was a high stress situation but to make a long story short, we decided to leave the Tesla overnight and wait for the library to open the next morning so we could pay to charge the car. London picked us up in my parent’s car and we drove home with them and slept over which was honestly really fun. Then we drove back to the library in Boston’s car first thing in the morning and spent a few hours reading in the library. 

It was kind of a hassle and an experience we could have lived without, but in retrospect, I’m glad we got to sleep over with my family and I’m glad that Noah had to miss work so we could read together in the library. 


The said Tesla.
