Some how, I transposed the date of the BTA Informational Booth with Liz D from Saturday the 7th to Friday the 13th. I alerted the staff at the elementary school, got stopped by a Sheriff's Deputy (because of it) and I'm disoriented trying to figure out how I made this error.
Well I know now. On the 6th, I finished up my last 32mi on the NCT - NW Ohio Independant. It spilled very late into the morning on the 7th. So, I probably went to bed having dismissed the the event alarm the day before, or it went off in my sleep.
So I spent the rest of the morning shopping at Walmart and the auto parts store. I got a new rachet set, so I can remove the old one out of my tool bin and into the spare tire compartment incase the car breaks without the trailer. Then I purchased two small tool boxes to prop and relieve my tool basket in the tool bin. I also purchased one torque wrench for a possible belt replcement and a 18 1/2" breaker bar.
A new propane two burner range was picked up today along with a 2 year extended warranty. The warranty was registered with Wal-Mart's service on-line today.
Pictured here is the condition of my passenger's side rear brake shoes and hardware. What is not pictured is the caliper, which is its boots are chewed up and the piston is warped and the unit is spitting brake fluid inside the drum. Overall, I'd say that their condition is "destroyed." The replacement drum cylinder (containing the caliper) is scheduled to arrive at 7pm tonight in Napoleon of Henry County. I won't be there to pick it up until tomorrow.
The tail gate had some problems releasing today. So, I performed some diagnostics. It indeed has a 20 amp fuse along with its relay and both are in perfect working order. But the latch itself is weak. Sometimes I have to activate the electronic hand popper three times to get it to release.
