On The Road

Soooooo much has happened so fast as you probably already know from other blog. Let me add my two cents worth. This may get lengthy so here goes.

I was setting at the Pilot T/S in Hespia, CA when Sue called me thursday after I got loaded. I couldn't believe I sat their for 24 hrs for 50 damn kegs of beer going all the way to Washington, D C! Anyway, she asked me when I was going to be home. I had already told her friday am. She wanted to know when friday. Ok, red flags are already going up. My first question was why, whats up? Well, you need to be here by 4pm to sign closeing papers on the combined house loans! Oh, shit... that's less than 24 hrs.! So I better get my butt in gear.

At about 8 am friday morning I was wondering where Scott & Staci were so I called them. They were coming thru Delta so I told them to hurry up and catch up. Later we agreed to meet in Glenwood Springs where Scott and Brian got on the truck with me to keep me awake. We rolloed into Denver at 1 pm. First hurdle crossed.

Got to the house at 3, jumped in shower and we were out of the house by 3:20. Made a stop at the bank, picked up Scott & Stacie(S&S) new insurance card at Calvins office and made the closing by 3:55. On the way out we stopped at the light their at Bockman(next to Toys R Us) and what is right ahead of us...DODGE! I told Sue we ought to just stop in and see what they had, we don't have to buy anything. So we drove in and of course the vultures attacked. Told them what we were looking for and he had 3 their, but only one in the price range that we wanted to stay in. When Sue got in she jumped right back out and said that that wasn't going to work, she could smell the cigerette smell so bad. So he went to get the keys to another which was close to what we wanted price wise and came back with two other guts with keys and they drove off in the other 2 pick ups. Come to fine out all 3 were going to the auction that night. So if we wanted it we had to make the deal right then. Not a good way to do things but what can I say. We told him that we had to come home and figure things and you all know how that went over. We phoned called back and forth 5 or 6 times and they asked when could we be back up there. In the conversion with the finanal manger Sue was pretty heated up and flat asked the guy if it was going to auction anyway why couldn't we just save them the trouble and buy it at auction price? They finely did sell it to us that way. Sue and I stripped the old cars in 5 min. flat, then I put shell back on p/u and we were there by 8:10. I blew the sales guy away when I walked up to him and told him if he wanted to sell that p/u he had to deal with Sue, I was so tird at this point I was damn near oblivious to everything. Anyway, at 10:30 we signed the papers and their was still another couple after us. You would never know that they closed at 8:30!

So yesterday after lunch we lined all the Dodges up and took a pic. Ran all over in MY p/u last night an picked up Jodi, stopped at DQ. Phone rang while we were setting their and Jesse had come down from camping it was so cold and wet.

Now we are just setting back and rehashing all the stuff that happened over the last week. Man oh man , LATER...
