Remember that time I wrote that I hoped regular updates would resume on Monday? Well, life threw us a curve. I visited my mother for Mother’s Day and learned she is struggling much more than I realized. So, we will probably be moving her sooner rather than later.
I brought back a few items from her place, like some desert dog tires for the race Jeep and some tools, but had hoped to bring back the DJ-3A aka Patterson (with Steve Carter’s offer to trailer it to Prosser). However, my mother’s garage door was broken and Patterson wouldn’t start (fuel pump not working), so I told Steve we’d do it some other time. I never got the fuel pump working, but I did get the garage door working again. I will swap in my electric fuel pump for the time being.
Good luck with your move , thank you for all your hard work on this site.
Tom: many thanks for that. The move part is complete, though there is plenty of unboxing left!
Mitch: Yeah, there are number of issues at this point. The good news is that we think we have a buyer for her property (neighbor) that will allow her some flexibility as we make this transition, so that will greatly ease things.
Ugh. Well that sucks. Your mom was always so strong!
That sounds promising at least.
