Runnin' Around

Today was a day of running errands. When Auntie Violet had her oil changed last week at Cummins NW we discovered we were short one gallon of oil. Forry likes to use Schaeffer Oil (which he gets in Moses Lake) in his vehicles and had brought a case of six gallons to the appointment with him. He didn't realize she needed seven gallons!

Acting on a hunch that maybe there might be somewhere in Spokane to pick up the needed gallon, Forry called his dealer in Moses Lake and found out that the Napa stores were now carrying Schaeffer products. We went out to the store on Freya and sure enough they had the oil we needed --


Our next stop was at the new Camping World store in Liberty Lake. The picture murals on the lower windows are new since we were there last week. Forry needed to check with them about the tow bar set-up we had ordered for the new Suzuki (of course, the one that we had for the Liberty doesn't fit...).


Next we went to Home Depot where we purchased some 1 1/2 inch pipe to use to put up the new antenna at the ranch. It comes in 10 foot lengths. We had them cut two of them into five foot lengths and then put new threads on the ends so that we can couple them all together. We thought the five foot sections would be easier to handle when putting them up and down -- as well as hauling them.


By this time it was getting late in the afternoon, so we stopped at a nearby Dairy Queen and got shrimp baskets for supper. But we needed to have Blizzards as well. We got back to Peaceful Pines RV Park just as the sun was setting. What a gorgeous sight!
