We Have Our Truck Back!


Steve and Jan picked us up for Joe's dance tonight. We had four squares. Bill and Beverly came south early. Ron and Ginette from Canada are here too. Arnie and Sue were dancing. He had a couple of stents inserted in his leg arteries, which were nearly 100% occluded. He says he's as good as new. Meanwhile, Steve is still waiting for his second knee injection.

 Hardy and Judy are back in town. We stopped by while we were out for our walk and talked with Hardy and heard some tales from their trip. Judy was out at the grocery store. Both of them were at the dance tonight.

We finally got our truck back this evening. The good news is that the oil leak fix was covered by warranty. Plus we got our truck back. Yay! We hope they also checked the coolant additive, but at least they turned off the message. They didn't fix Ken's key fob. Instead they offered to sell him a new one for $280. He decided to fix it himself this evening by cleverly inserting some thicknesses of light cardboard to keep the battery in more secure contact. Cheap fix!

I am finding it hard to believe that the grand jury in New York decided not to indict the police officer whose choke hold of Eric Garner was caught on video. Garner, an asthmatic, can be heard pleading that he can't breathe, and the coroner ruled it a homicide.
