Can't and don't like. I'm on the recovery side I hope. Took the wife down last Thursday and me on Saturday. She's worse off because of respiratory issues. The person who dropped it on us has been down for 10 days. I'm just hoping to get back to work next week. I'm sure the boss is not happy. If he asks for a doc note I'll just say he wasn't there to drive me. Hehe. Wasn't about to try and drive. Either that or I'll let him know I could've brought it in and shut the entire shop down.

 

Indio Coachella near the hwy 86 I believe

 

that's a brand new Ford F250

I see a lot of 3/4 to 1 ton trucks towing toy trailers out here


According to the comments in this vid the driver approached the intersection when the lights turned yellow . He panicked and hit the brakes and over corrected , the trailer pushed the truck and flipped it

 

Good evening all

I am at work trying to take it easy. every once in a while I check TW. You guys are hard to keep up with tonight.

Been playing in the shop yesterday and today just about to pack it in for the night. Need to go in and finish laundry.

Cool jam

 

It's hwy 86. The train was screwing me up. It's right there at Coachella. That's the only place the train is that close to the hwy. There's 3 or 4 stop lights there that are a pain in the ass that start there and the last is at Mecca then a few more before you get to Brawley as you're going by the "resorts" by Salton Sea.

 

So it's been a long and confusing day and I'm hoping I haven't gotten over my head. We stared the day with some troubling news. A lady in my wifes office has had oone of those horrible years and a week or so ago her heat stopped. I offered for her to stay with us as it's been pretty damn cold here. Well when Christie walked in to work this morning she was told the lady's son was killed in a car accident last night, her only child..
I don't know her but I asked what she might need as I don't really do flowers they just die and it seems like a waste to me. Christie found out her only car is a 1993 Honda Accord and it needs a battery which her son was supposed to put in for her. I told her to get a hold of the car. The ladies at the office got it for me and I coordinated with the manager of the local fisher auto parts, who I luckily have known for years, and had them take it there. I explained to him what I was doing. He checked the battery, got one , and installed it for me as I was stuck at therapy. I found out later he only charged me cost for it.
I got Christie to bring it home so I could check it out. It's a 24 year old car and needs a complete service. I called my buddies at the Toyota dealer and explained what is going on. I want her to have acar she can at least somewhat rely on it's age considered. Thhey told me to bring it in and they'd do a complete service on it for me at employee cost and let me know what else it may need i.e. brakes and such. The ladies in the office have chipped in to help with the cost some but I'll foot th bill for most of this. If it needs brakes to be safe I can do that I'm just not loaded with money and not really sure where to draw the line. I'm just affraid if this car breaks down on her or wouldn't start it just may be the thing that breaks her and from what I hear she's a very nice lady. I don't really know how far to take this

Sorry such a long winded post
