We drove Jet White down from Gresham to Anahiem.  We arrived last night after two days of driving.  We spent Sunday night at a nice Best Western in Lodi.  We were on the Santa Ana Freeway (I-5) nearing Anahiem when our fuel gage hit empty.
We exited the freeway and we were in Norwalk, CA, searching for diesel.  We found a few gas stations, but none had diesel.  Most of the station attendents here are Spanish speaking, but we were eventually directed to a station with a diesel pump.  We found it.  It was full of cars.  To get to the diesel pump from the one street I would have had to drive over a curb.   I had to go around a large block to get in.  We were only allowed 15 gallons, but it got us back on the road.
Did I mention  that we were all hot and irritable?  That made our adventure even more fun!
The attendent did not understand my request for directions to I-5.  I should have said the Santa Ana.
We eventually found I-5, missed the exit for  CA-90, turned around, and made our way to our motel in Anahiem Hills.
