LSP, What a Sell-Out!



God is in His heaven, my rig is in the shop and before you can say, "LSP, you should've done it yourself, what a sell-out!" I'll say it for you. I sold out, to The Man, and let the mechanics deal with the truck's broken coolant system.


There Was a House Here, Once

That meant a pleasant walk back into town along 22. There were more houses here at one time, and nature's fast reclaiming the empty spaces where they once stood.


Courthouse

The railway's still here, though it only runs freight these days, and so is the courthouse, standing tall in the town square. We can thank Willie Nelson for part of that because he helped with its renovation in the '90s, after a fire.


Huevos Rancheros

It's a short walk across the square to Montes Mexican diner and Huevos Rancheros (Rancher's Eggs). Montes has other food and I'm sure it's great, but I don't order it, I just get Rancher's Eggs because I like them and they taste good.


A Couple of Random Glocks

This time was no exception.

God bless,

LSP

Monte's makes a solid breakfast. Their tortillas are always home made and fresh.

Good breakfast move.

The White Pick-up will be back on the road in no time!

Sometimes it's better to leave a job to the professionals. I know I'm always doubting myself when I finish, worrying that I forgot a small, significant part. Certainly cheaper than getting a whole new ride, for something so minor.

Didn't think you would sell out for some cackle berries and a tortilla... sigh

I leave the radiators and the engine mounts to the local mechanic. Oh, and brakes. I hate fixing brakes.

I do like their tortillas, LL, I have to say. The truck'll be ready tomorrow, and not before time.

That's the way i felt about this episode, Mattexian. But speaking of new rides, at some point i'd like a 4x4, i go off road enough...

LSP said...

I know, Brighid, and I apologize, but I couldn't resist.

I've done brakes before, Euripides, but I'm not much of a mechanic. i should probably change that and save a lot of cash...
