What a Day!
Posted by Bev Darby, Rock n Spheres on 2nd Oct 2017
Tomorrow we leave for the Joshua Tree show. I am normally so organized. Not this time.
I never got around to deciding which spheres to take. Yesterday Alan and I pulled 15 boxes unopened from the closet. I have no idea what I will be setting up.
This morning I loaded up the truck. Had everything tied down. Decided to run 2 errands. No biggy. After my second stop, I got in the truck and nothing! called for a jump and 30 minutes later I was on my way to a 45 minute recharge the battery drive.
30 minutes after I got home, thought I would just make sure it would start. Nope! Called Alan and we tried to jump it. Nope! Once again I am on the phone, this time for a tow. Now the truck is a beast and requires a big boy tow truck. After 30 minutes, one was ordered.
Not knowing for sure what is wrong, I now am unloading the truck. Being a diesel, the thing is never a quick fix. 2 hours later the tow truck shows up and off we go to the Ford dealer. 3 hours later it is ready after 2 new batteries installed.
It is now again loaded up in the drive ready for its big trip tomorrow. Can I say I am not!
Thanks for reading......
