I woke up about 7:30 and played games for a while. then it was up for pet stuff and breakfast. As soon as that was done I went outside to wash the truck and the trailer.
I got everything prepared - towels, hose, soaker, brush, ladder. That's when I found out that I didn't have any car wash. I got in the truck and went to HEB. Luckily they had some. The store was packed with pre-Thanksgiving shoppers.
When I got home I started on the truck. It was the same as in Oregon - hit a section with the soaker, scrub it down, and then rinse it off. The difference was that without immediate drying the whole surface was covered with water spots. I had Ellen come out to wipe things down as I finished the rinsing. That worked pretty well.
When the truck was done we moved to the trailer. I repeated the same process with Ellen handing me the hose and brush so I didn't have to get off the ladder. I had to scrub pretty hard to get the bugs off. The result is pretty bug free though.
After that I put everything away. When I finished I was soaked in sweat and very tired. I went back into the house, got a beer, and did some surfing. After a little while Ellen said a package had been delivered. It was the extension cord for the palm tree. I took it to the deck and installed the palm tree in the planter by the flamingos.
When I got back inside I took a shower. I felt almost human when I got out. I had lunch and then started shopping on Amazon. I sat in the recliner and looked through 2,000 RC parts. This took hours both before and after dinner. There was a nap in the process also. I ended up buying about 4 things.
After dinner I ordered what I'd found and then watched videos for the rest of the evening.
This officially concludes the pre-Thanksgiving tasks. Tomorrow I can start doing thins that I choose to do.
