Best laid plans, page four………..In the process of hooking up this 5
gallon tank inside I managed to make a 2 inch cut in my right hand
between the thumb and first finger. Talk about stupid. No one else to
blame. Not even a wife to feel sorry for me. Couldn’t find a hospital
or clinic. Did it with my own pocket knife. To hell with it, the GMC
is running good so I took off West bound. Not ten miles out of town is
a check station manned by the border patrol. These guys took me in,
washed my “wound” and bandaged my hand. Great guys!! If I could have
found a donut shop close by I would have taken a couple dozen back to
them. If anyone is going thru there drop off a couple dozen for me and
I will gladly repay you. I pressed on to Phoenix and my brothers house
in Chandler. Switching back and forth between the forward tank and the
5 gallon tank inside. Nerve racking to say the least. Hiway 10 goes
thru Benson AZ, which isn’t too far from Steve Ferguson’s place. I
was seriously thinking about stopping there but elected to continue
on. Two reasons, Not sure what was wrong and I wanted a big city to
find parts. Second, my wife was flying in to meet me and celebrate my
birthday. Coughing and wheezing that GMC carried me into Chandler lat
that night. You cannot imagine what a pleasure it was to take a shower
and crawl into a queen size bed………Terry
PS next will be page five and the work starts.
