I’ll stir the coals for the night crew.
Long day today. While the future-Mrs was out horsing about at this new barn, I went around town to try and track down a trailer sway control kit for this long trip we’re about to embark on. Most places (Autozone, O’reilly, Napa) have them at the warehouse, but with a delivery date several days after we leave. I tried a bunch of places, finally got one at Murdoch’s for $65. So that is one more check off the list.
After this, we went to a couple places to look for furniture for our very empty place. We managed to get a squeaky computer chair. Close enough.
I stopped by the airport to inquire about a job. While I was in the office at a mechanic place, I was chatting with the office lady, and one of my C-130s happened to taxi by outside. So that was perfect timing. I may be getting a job there operating their fuel farm, which is better than nothing.
The final part I’ll mention in this long winded post is that a friend of my parent’s died yesterday by his own hand. He was 90.
