8:30 PM I’m struggling with - Hum - darn near everything it ‘feels like’. Struggling might be too drastic a term – I know from a lot of previous experience that these periods require close moderation and unusual care when decisions are required. Let’s admit it “our lives are a series of decisions”. OK, end subject. Next up for my readers who are NOT facebook followers -
(Just got back from looking at 71 model camper trailer. I needed gas so I stopped and filled up. Two pump shutoffs after full.Got on the freeway and ran 70-75 mph to my nearest exit close to home. 1/2 mile at 35 or less later. Avg. hiway speed 74 mph +/-, re- filled + two pump shutoffs after full. .75 gal. 19.3 mpg ! Ain't too bad for 40 year old iron block V-8 - 4x4 . Almost as aerodynamic as a upright brick.) Crazy old man and YEAH I have better things to do but most aren't much fun!
OH the camper – I don’t think IT’S the ONE. Too big to pull through mountains comfortably even after the Scout has it’s mechanical updates and it was rough – really rough. Tires good. Lights not so much, one roof problem and some work previously done that I was in serious doubt about and some missing exterior panels. Keep looking old sport – seems to be my motto of the period. And I have news for ya I got a few other things on my mind right now so there is some competition for my limited attention span. Oh Oh that might be the problem. The “limited attention” part! (chuckle) Which really messes with priories, NOT my specialty either.
Well on the other hand – that would be the “left” and you all know that isn’t me. Well I thought that was sort of witty. I think I won’t proof this or I’d have to start all over and I’m more thinking of a hot shower, warm sweats and a good book now that the Kindle is re-charged. No “Blazing fire or beverage” required.
