The problems the van was having were apparently due to the 12V battery deciding to flake out. It was three years old, so I suppose that isn't unexpected, based on what I'm seeing on the Internet.

While the van was in the shop, they fixed two of the three recall items. The third required parts that they didn't have, but have now ordered, so when they are available, it will go back in for that.

I had a wonderful time at GAFilk. The van, maybe not so much, as it became somewhat insane about starting in random ways while on the trip. This made the 14 hour and 45 minute drive home more exciting than it would have been otherwise, but happily, I managed to get the van to start on all occasions and -- actually! -- after leaving the hotel parking lot, it started correctly every time.

The van has an appointment at the dealership on Wednesday. I suspect that there is a computer issue underlying all this, but -- then again -- I would. :)

Anyway, I had a wonderful time at the con, got to talk to a lot of people, sold some CDs, got to make some music. All good.

Even if I didn't get enough sleep last night because there were unknown melodies running through my head...
