Haha... watch Maki, she will use your advice and he’ll think. Hmmm, I’ll just send her some preparation H! Hahaha. I know, I know, I need to get out more!
Whew!
Utah to Minnesota in two days... left yesterday morning and got home around 2pm. Toss in a flat tire in Miles City MT and a bit of cold... ? 9Pm and the only hope was the pilot station. They came through! I got a plug kit! Cheap as it was it worked. Pushing that plug in a ten ply tire was all I could do to muster and took only two tries. Not sure the tool would have held up to a third. Of course, my hands are now screaming at me... why did you do that! I’m like, I don’t know... didn’t feel like sitting in Montana freezing to death. Haha. First flat on the road in roughly 400,000 miles. I’ll have a more permanent repair done tomorrow. Didn’t like the spare tire option... to me that was a last resort on my truck. Another challenge for my hands. I did get a message I could be getting relief before I leave south.
Nature Lover... that is incredible. Your perseverance and desire to stick to your plan is amazing. Once you give in and let the state take over your care it may be a bit harder to escape next time. God bless the nomad Nature Lover! Good job taking care of yourself... that diabetes is a terrible deal. My oldest cousin didn’t take care of himself and had to have both legs removed. I have a pun, but I have better taste and will leave that alone.
I think the hardest thing last night was seeing how fast my water in the back of the truck was freezing. Yikes! It is November... but just the thought that there are people basking in the sun laughing at me. Haha! One more week, and to my benefit... milder weather! I gotta say... we live in a beautiful country. I love the diverse areas... mountains, forests deserts and plains... and a good Dairy Queen!
