We are at Henderson's and Pete came over to the gravel lot to work on Miss Doozie a bit today... he said that he thought all the parts were in except the wheel and tire. We called the tire shop, and they indicated that the tire was mounted.
 |
| On our way from the campground on Sunday, we noticed a recycling place... so we first headed there to get recycling out of the Jeep so we'd have room for the mounted wheel/tire in the back of the Jee-rage. |
 |
| Pete has done some work - hurrah for progress! |
 |
| There's the wheel/tire up against the outer dual... |
 |
| Unfortunately Pete realized that the lug studs were too short, so he had to remove them. He also indicated that we were going to need to move into the shop area where he would have access to the shop air for the other work to be done... but he was also going to check on whether the correct lug studs could be acquired. I guess that hasn't happened yet... hopefully tomorrow... |
We were talking about how this experience has brought home to both of us how quickly our home could have been completely destroyed (and our other vehicle too) and how quickly we might have had to make a decision about what to do "next". Sobering thoughts...
