    Oh dear me, Glensda! That looks like a lot of snow...You'll get her started though, one way or another.
    Fingers crossed.

    Let's hope your car will start when you need it Glenda. Maybe the snow will act as insulation and keep the engine from getting too cold.

    It will need a new battery as the one on it has frozen.

    If you drove it there then you can drive it away. If it has not started in awhile then the battery probably needs to be recharged. Jump the battery, start the car and let the car recharge the battery.

    The closer to Texas your car gets the better it will run.

    I bet your car is just as anxious as you are to return to Texas. :D

    We tried to jump it off but the battery is just dead.
    If it ever gets started Netty I hope it purrs like a kitten.
