Again...*sigh*...ride to the Townsend's Warbler?

[Weston Barker]

Well, looks like I'm trying to bum a ride again...

I dipped on the Townsend's Warbler in Cape Elizabeth on Tuesday and had planned to make another try on Thursday (nope) Friday (canceled)...but, uh, those plans deteriorated.

So if anyone is chasing the bird tomorrow and wouldn't mind giving me a ride, that would be spectacular. Once again, I'm ~40 minutes up the coast from Portland (in Topsham) so my hopes aren't high and I feel bad asking AGAIN, but I can't resist with a bird like this one.

But please DON'T go to any trouble to give me a ride. 

My savings are slowly inching towards the jobless-kid-wallet-busting Driver's Ed and self transportation, but in the meantime while I beg rides from fellow birders feel free to continue to laugh at my desparations. I suppose providing amusement to you all is the next best thing to actually procuring a ride.

Happy birding!

p.s. While I'd be grateful for whatever I can get, a ride with someone I've been previously acquainted with would be preferred.

Now that I think of it, I should mention that a couple of my family members (not including me) have colds (hopefully just colds) so maybe riding together wouldn't be the best idea. I've temporarily become a hermit and am living double-masked and cold-free in my bedroom as much as possible (and fully vaccinated), but I would be remiss not to mention that just in case. So totally understandable if you don't want me in your car. I would be horrified if it turned out my aforementioned family members had covid and I had potentially exposed someone else.
