I only had two instances of bad luck. Nothing really serious, just annoying. With the rain the water leaks in at the back of the cowl vent. (It does have a rubber gasket) The water must have got into the wiper motor and shorted it out. (I guess I should have stayed with the vacuum motor) Fortunately the rain stopped as we headed up the mountains. The other was when we stopped at O’Reilly to get taillight bulbs. The lenses are/were glass. One slipped out of my fingers and shattered. Red tape the rest of the way home. I ordered two new PLASTIC lense. Neither one of those would have upset me if I was feeling good. But was sick from the heat from Friday. All good now.
Over all, it was a good trip. Got to re-unite with my Stovebolt family. That was my main reason for going, in the first place. I am looking forward to our next gathering for sure!
TUT, Eli really likes the truck you gave him. I will have him send you a pic of it on his display shelf.
See y’all soon! PaPa Joe

P.S. We arrived home Saturday evening around 6:00.
