Day 3195

 I got up a little before 8 for pet stuff and breakfast.  Then I surfed waiting for Joe and his son to show up to grease the trailer wheels.

No one came at 9.  About 10 Joe called to say that they were loading up the tools.  While I was waiting I saw that Best Buy is selling an OLED TV that will fit in the trailer for $300 off.  I decided to get one.  I also took Abby for a short walk over to the clubhouse.  She ran all of the wy to the pigeons, but came back without being called.

Joe's son finally showed up sometime before 11.  He got right to work.  It's a long slow job and he did a good job.  As I watched him  crawl under the trailer to set the jacks and grease the zerks I was convinced that I'm too old for that shit.

My right hearing aid had stopped working so Ellen and I tried to figure out why while the trailer was being worked on.  We drew a blank.  I tried to call Costco twice, but no one answered.

Joe showed up after about 2 hours and we talked while his son worked.  His son finished up about 1:30 or 2.  Joe said it was $300 for the job.  I had Ellen write a check for $400 to his son.  As Joe was writing up the bill he discovered he'd left out the $27 for parts.  I gave him $40.

When they left I put the tire covers back on and raked the gravel to smooth it out.  Ellen put the lides back out.  Then we left for Costco.

Luckily we didn't have to wait when we got to Costco.  It turns out the speaker grill was clogged with wax.  The guy there showed me how to clean it.  Then we did a little shopping.

We stopped at Best Buy and bought the TV on the way home.  We also stopped at the pet shop an bought enough packages of dried cat food to last until we're back in Texas.  The truck went into regen while we were going home.  I didn't even notice until it was almost finished.  The ash level went down to 0%.

The last stops were for fuel and the post office.  The fuel stop is probably the last one I will do with the truck before we fill up to leave.

When we got home I unpacked the new TV.  The good news is that the connections will hook up easily.  The bad news is that the mount won't fit without an adapter plate.  I ordered one from Amazon, but it won't be here until Saturday.

Dinner was a frozen thing.  After dinner it was videos until I got bored.  Then it was surfing.  The state fair is going on.  Hopefully we can go tomorrow.
