bracket for attaching the tow bar is welded up, front brakes are done, title is switched and the temp tags are on the Tracker. Today or tomorrow, I'll get the emission tested so I can get regular plates in the next two weeks.. (before the temps expire - since they're now charging LATE fees if you don't do it within a week of the expiration date)
I don't have any work until tonight, so I'm hoping to get holes drilled in the bracket so I can attach it to the Tracker and the mounts for the tow bar attached to it. Once the Tracker is ready to roll, I can move on to the RV, which I'm way behind schedual on and hope to have ready before the 21st
We might hook up the Tracker to the RV, drive the RV to NC, droping at my cousins farm, unhook the Tracker and drive it on to just South of Myrtle Beach, SC for a week on the beach with my sister.
I've been driving the Tracker around a little, just getting used to driving a car with stick... really the first one in the last 30 years..... and I didn't drive one much before that, just my sisters on a few occassions and her husband gave me his Jetta, which I let sit too long and ended up have the motor lock up (or maybe just the alternator or something or something)
Finally more progress, the beach trip went great, but the RV and Tracker are still in Ohio. After a couple more trips to NC, we finally found a house to rent.
ReplyDeleteWe signed a one year lease, paid the security deposit and shipped the packrat container to the new house in NC. Now just a matter of getting the container unloaded so it can be picked up, and getting us and the rest of our stuff moved. Along with building a wheelchair ramp for our son and a shed for our stuff, since garages and especially basements are more an exception in NC.
ReplyDeleteWe think it should all be done with moving by the end of Jan. Come February, I need to work hard at growing a clientel in the Greensboro, Kernersville, High Point and Reidsville NC area.
