Day 3246

I woke up at 7:30 and played games for quite a while.  There was no point in getting up.  We aren't going anywhere until the trailer has a new axle.

We did have to do the wash though, so eventually it was up for pet stuff, breakfast, and start the wash.  The only thing to do while the wash was going was surf.  When the wash was done surfing was still the only thing to do.  We couldn't go anywhere until the repair guys replace the axle.

About 11 the repair guy said that he'd be there in about an hour.  He and his helpers showed up about 1.  They spent quite a bit of time installing the axle and making sure everything was right.  The total cost was a little over $6,000.  $1,500 of that was the charge to go to El Paso to get the axle.  That's a 500 mile round trip.

It was mid afternoon before the repair was finished.  We got in the truck and went to Fort Stockton.  We bought a few groceries at Wally World and ate a very late (4 o'clock) lunch at a local hamburger place.  It was half price hamburger day.

When we got home it was videos.  We really didn't have any dinner.  Bedtime was pretty much the usual.
