Wild Thing is back in her spot and NOT on the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BUT!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The good news is that I found tires for her, and she should have her new “shoes” on Thursday – YEA!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I thought tires would be the challenging thing, but turns out the LOF and general engine service is proving more difficult to arrange. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had a tentative appointment for all some weeks ago, but it was cancelled by service company … too many “Fleet” vehicles backlogged, and RVs are “not necessary”. All exacerbated by lack of personnel. I won’t even go there as it is beyond my comprehension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Again, BUT!!! Tires were the most crucial impediment to hitting the road. I knew when I finished my last trip in 2015 that I was at the legal age limit for my tires, but knowing I would be off the road for some time due to Bear not being able to get in the RV … I did nothing. And then Emmett and then COVID and now scrambling. When I had issues getting any appointment, I decided to split the issues and try for tires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have a few more thoughts for the other service, but we’ll get the tires, get our work week in and regroup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the front porch plants are winding down…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pretty!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This “side” had a run in with some critter(s) overnight, but have mostly recovered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This side was not disturbed!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mint (upper right) is doing well considering it started the season as sprigs after a challenging over-Wintering inside! I am not going to over-Winter anything this year. As soon as a hard frost is forecast, I will harvest what herbs I can and let Nature take her course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of this writing, we have two days of upper 70’s F forecast and then a cool front. The nights are wonderfully cool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are enjoying as much time outside as we can. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe “not from the road” as I’d hoped, but making progress towards that :) !! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
