Things Did Not Go As Planned Today, Not By a Long Shot

I always like to think when I have day like that, when everything that could possibly go wrong does, best thing to do is sit back, calm down, and ride it out, because you’re getting all the bad luck out of the way.
...

Yep. "Some days you're the dog; other days you're the hydrant."

Better than this:
Man tries to fix flat tires with gauze and Band-Aids

Not commenting on the dress code However, let me get this straight. If it rains, you are gonna go inside and get wet? Why not just stay outside?

Good point, sure ain't gonna get our clothes wet. Then again, if it's rainin' the suns not shining and the indoor aquatics center has 2 hot tubs, a swimming pool, a sauna and a workout room.

Ah;
you are driving around on 13 year old tires ??

You are a lot braver than me.

Dunno how old the tires are. They were on the truck when we got it 4 years ago. I pretty sure they're not the original tires. The sticker on the drivers side door jamb says the truck originally had 245/70/17 tires and these are 265/70/17.

That also popped into my mind. I can't get any tires of mine last more than 5 years, and I'm talking cars here. I went through the first rear tire of my GXR1100 in little more than one year (some 10.000 miles). And it was brand new.

Got the truck back with some brand new skins. The tread on the new tires are a bit more aggressive. Should work great in the snow.
We had a great time at Avalon. It was mostly sunny and the temps got up to 96 degrees. Everything went as planned 'cept I smoked my cigar after we had our campfire cooked hot dogs.
