Weasel will become famous soon enough
When the indicator light comes on, it is usually due to lack of charging volts. If you are going to attempt to drive it 20 miles tomorrow... I'd charge the HELL out of the battery tonight and bring a set of jumpers or an extra battery with you! And for damn sure have every single power consuming accessory possible turned off, you want as little drain from the battery as possible on that drive.

I would normally suggest using a tow truck, but knowing the reputation of tow truck drivers not giving a damn I wouldn't want to chance it... Likely would cost you less just to drive it there, even if it costs you a battery.
