We are off to Boise. Got away a little before 9. Stopped in Cascade at Grandma's for breakfast and then to Harpo's for fuel and a couple of Diet Cokes. I was in search of the sub $2.699 price for diesel so I just put in enough to safely get to Boise and cruise around a bit.
The first stop was the Nike Factory Store where Sharon needed to get some new shoe strings, the dryer ate one. While she was making her selection I decided to look around the store. I was looking for some of those yellow shoes they were wearing at the Olympics, no luck, the people there said that they were too new and since they are a Factory Store they only get the old stuff. So I settled for some ORANGE ones, not really close but maybe I can get up my nerve and ware them to some basketball games.
It was on to Kohl's to return a recently purchased Hoodie and then to Walmart to get some small propane bottles and a couple of Ozark Tumblers, similar to Yeti, but much cheaper.
Then I searched for Fuel. The best I could do was Fred Meyer $2.659.
On to Edmark GMC to get the truck serviced, oil change, top off the DEF and change the fuel filter. I had and interesting exchange with a service guy there. People around me in Georgetown give me grief about the color of my truck, the color of the truck in Sonoma Red. I gave the service guy the keys to the truck and went inside to do the paperwork. When he came in, he said to me, is that your Maroon truck, I said what, he said, is that your Maroon truck, I said No. He looked at me funny and I did not say anything for a few seconds and then said, the truck is Sonoma Red, you can call it a Red truck. I told him I was a little sensitive about the color. While they were servicing the truck we made a walk around the area and found a sub shop, Port of Subs, for lunch.
Then we headed back to McCall and got back a little before 7. We were whipped. Cocktails and then just sit and relax and watch a little tennis sharing an apple and a cookie.
It sure seemed like a long day.
