It's Friday, & I'm in North Carolina now... It was quite a trip- I was visiting Mom up in Corning, and my flight was from San Luis Obispo (A 6 + change hour drive). I missed my flight by a couple minutes, which proved to be the least of my troubles... There was another flight going to SF then DC, so it was ok. Well the flight in SF was delayed over 2 hours & didn't take off till 12:30am- and didn't get to DC till after my flight to NC had left, so I waited till 12:30pm to catch the next one.
Finally got here though. Lonnie drove up from Goldsboro in his new Tundra. Nice truck. He picked me up off a street corner in downtown Raleigh (Hey a guy's gotta make some money) and we went to 'The Big Easy' for lunch. We then headed back for Goldsboro, and stopped by to meet his hombre Charlie, then got to his casa. I hadn't met Maria's kids before, so that was cool. Ashlyn is the youngest (7), Justin is in the middle (11), and Daniel is eldest at 13.
Well as soon as we got to Lonnie's we got down to business. We took his '74 Caddy for a spin through the neighborhood (which is really nice btw). The thing is a beast, & a boat. Has a 478 engine in it, which is about big enough to run a semi. I get to drive it around while I'm over here. Should be sweet (except for the no ac part). I'll just roll down the windows & cruise.
After the ride we came back and Lonnie worked on mowing the back lawn. It's huge. At the same time I got to work on the back of the house with the pressure washer. Looks real good.
Enough blabbing. I need to hop in the water closet, go get a haircut, and get back to work on the pressure washing & finishing Lonnie's mowing. Theyve both got tons to do in the next week so hopefully I can help out a bit.
