Getting rock chips repaired


With a 9 1/2 hour drive home tomorrow, I decided to get a couple of rock chips I sustained yesterday in the Sonoran Desert repaired.  Safelite sent a friendly car nut to repair them within an hour.  He said he has seen only one other Phaeton in Vegas-- a 110,000+ mile example that's been treated roughly by its owner.

Repair cost: $155.23 (the Safelite guy said a new windshield costs around $1,300).
Less: $50 reimbursement for being a AAA Premier Member.
Less: $178 I won at Red Rock Casino's slot machines.
Equals: Not a bad day.

Incidentally, I saw Pawn Stars' star Rick Harrison at the casino.  He was much smaller in real life.

Oh, and Alan, the interior color is "anthracite".
