Best laid plans...
mood: 
tired
tiredSo the outdoors adventure did not work out as expected. One of my truck's brake calipers had some issues so I came back early to get it sorted out.
The day was an adventure and I had fun doing some off road driving and I got a few decent photos before I headed back. At the moment, I'm sitting at a random restaurant getting food while I wait to hear from the mechanic.
Thus endeth hunting weekend #1 and I'm pretty much ok with that.
The truck issues turned out to be a bit more expensive than I would have liked plus it can't get fixed until Monday at the earliest.
This is starting to look suspiciously like a sign of some sort :-p
I still plan on going for another couple of weeks with my dad (I really enjoyed the off-roading and some of the stuff we can see out in the middle of nowhere is just absolutely gorgeous) but I may have to put some more thought into how eager/willing I'd be to actually do anything more than carry my rifle out there.
Speaking of what does it mean, what does the :S smilie mean? :-p
And by learned how to change my brakes, I mean got a bunch of boys to do it for me. I bedded 'em in, though, and they feel good.
Who got bedded? :-p
(reread the last part of that comment, I nearly spat out my drink when I read it the first time around ;-)
My vehicle troubles weren't quite so easy to resolve. My truck is out of commission until Monday at the earliest so I'm tooling around in my folk's sport-trac. I really need to get my little sports car running again, I don't like having to borrow vehicles.
You do need to get your little sports car running again! In part because borrowing vehicles sucks, in part because little sports cars RULE!
Well, it's not quite as little as the sports cars you like :-p. Kinda hard to make that claim about a 70's Corvette w/ a big ol' V-8, but I love that rumble :-D.
I'd actually been thinking about getting it back on the road since it's actually in running order, I just put it in storage mode a couple of years ago and I need to clean it up, give it a tune up and get the registration, inspection, and insurance sorted out. Not a big deal, but it's always easier to not spend the doing all that if I don't need to.
Right up until I think about how much I miss driving that car ;-)
