This is my post for #freewriters 2202 prompt the bus is late hosted by @ariannewest and @daily.prompt
My daughter rented a car from the airport and it is electric I asked where are we going to charge it and I wondered how long it would take to charge. She says they have charging stations everywhere, I bet our hotel even has one.
We drove from the airport in Rhode Island to Fall River Massachusetts, which is a twenty minute drive. When we got to the hotel it said we had 35% power. She said it was not charged all the way when we picked it up. There were no charging stations at the hotel.
Before doing our running around we wanted to charge the car and found a charging station not far from us, but it was for only Tesla cars, they had no other chargers.
We drove to the next closest which was at a Burger King, the plug fit at this one, but it said it would take 6 hours to charge.
She Googled the next closest place and it sent us to an industrial warehouse, we figured it was screwed up because we did not see any charging places. When we got to the next place, it was another type of warehouse but we saw the stations, she plugged it in and it said it would take 6 hours.
We had to drive back to Rhode Island before we could find a place to charge the car that would not take 6 hours. It took one hour and twenty minutes. If buses ever go electric the driver should hang a sign on it that says the bus is late.
While the car was charging, I walked on the edge of the road looking for interesting rocks. When I came back to the car and sat down, a tick was crawling up my leg.
