Truck Woes

The alarm went off at 6am so Ed could get up and be ready to head to the GM dealer for a 7 am appointment. My nephew, Tim showed up at 6:30 and off they went. There was some good news and some not so good news when Ed returned at 9:30am. The good news was we could head today out as planned, the not so good news was we needed to replace the transfer case, but for now it was patched and would hopefully hold till we reached Mission and organized getting a new transfer case installed. I really didn't enjoy looking at the quote but we need the truck in good working order if we're going to do the long drives we do.

Today's drive was only 3 hours as we planned to stop in Willis, about 40 minutes north of Houston, to visit friends from Missouri that were staying in the area. We went to a Mexican restaurant for dinner and had a very nice visit.

The RV park where we were staying put on an amazing fireworks show. The sky was lit with the display for almost a half hour. We had lucked into a spot that allowed us to see the show from the bedroom window of the trailer. The show as over by 8pm --- I was in bed by 9 and Ed followed before 10. I blamed it on all the driving, Ed blamed it on having to get up at 6am.
