getting to it

HOT. And nice, far beyond the sunrise. Trailer almost onto land: out of street and nearby. Truck got real sandy there for a second;) Found corners of my lot; this is big and green! Walked with Maribel and her uncle, a fisherman who got this plot in the 2008 land lottery (unallotted land is assigned… Continue reading getting to it

Scrap wood holding them onto roof is so ridiculous that it just might work. An… Continue reading Oof

Copilot!

Craig arrives! He was going to fly into Cabo later, but for some stupid reason is such a great friend that he instead flew into San Diego to keep me company / from falling asleep on the drive down. Probably doesn’t know what he’s getting himself into… And immediately something goes wrong. While driving up… Continue reading Copilot!

Jetski with trailer in SLO $1.8k, 33′ toy hauler (meaning the back folds down so you can drive adult toys like ATVs and motorcycles into it) in my kind of rough shape San Diego $5k. Drove all the way here without killing myself! Staying at *Giant* RV park Campland: 600+ spots… Continue reading More Toys

Leaving

Mon. 9/27/21: Kate left and so did I (her in the morning and me much later afternoon than hoped):( But, at least I’m leaving in overloaded Beverly Hillbillies style!
