Always something!

The plans, to just go pick the bike up?  Well, not... so simple.  I knew I had an eye clinic appointment coming up.  Didn't realize it was already that time.  It... is that time.  Monday.  And early.  If that is better than later.

I hadn't mapped the path to the seller's house.  My friend did that on his phone, since he was driving.  I had just laid down to sleep when that fell through, as you might have remembered.  So was feeling rather awful.  Couldn't have driven.  Anyway, so I had to get that on my phone.

Of course, my phone is wonky, having just "updated", and screwed every pooch on the machine.  So, wasn't sure the thing would go through.  But it did, without much trouble.  Not on my account, so I can't save it.  Don't want my account on the phone anymore anyway, so... as long as I can get things to work...

So, yes, I got things mapped, and trails set to one-clicks on the phone.  Just click and the map and directions should pop.  It'll take two hours to get to his house, and an hour beyond to get to the V.A. from his place.  Plus some time to disconnect the trailer, though that is pretty fast.  But, I had to check with the seller.  He is okay with it.

So, I have to leave here around four to five.  That just gives me an hour or two for heavy traffic, and accident (not mine, but along the pathing), and should work.  Still, I had to scramble a bit.  The good thing is, this complication made me do it now so I didn't try to do it right before.  It is all set up, save for me getting there.

The good thing though, is gas.  I was thinking of filling some five gallon tanks, so that I wouldn't have to disconnect in order to top off somewhere.  With the way this works, I should be able to fill up as I am nearing his house from the V.A., before connecting the trailer.  So, should be able to drive back without needing to stop anywhere.  Should.  Though, if needed, I'll be closer to home, in smaller towns.  So less risky to do a quick disconnect.

Life is complicated, or can be.  Doing new things is a worry.  With the longer time, I can drive slower, too.  I would rather drive faster, but I don't know how it will handle as interstate speeds.  Ugh.  Should work fine, it's a 12", with 2x6s or 2x8s for a floor, and metal frame, heavy duty metal mesh sides.  Should.... do okay at 75.  Don't want to go 80, and may go a bit slower still on the way home.  Ugh.

Well... Just about bedtime.  Goodnight.
