    Went to Walmart and got my refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker and lots of food.
    Got most of my stuff moved into. I am still waiting on my inverter, but it is somewhere in north little rock.
    Did inverntory on my truck. Had to have two of my canvas tarps sewed up as they had some large rips in them.
    Refolded the steel and lumber tarps. Lubricated all of my binders and and strap ratches on the truck.
    Only issue I found was that the dome light in the truck was not working. They will fix it when I have the inverter installed.
    Got to drive the truck around the lot when I got my tarps fixed. It has some spunk in 2nd gear. Got to practice backing a little as well.
    It is really a good feeling getting the truck set up as my own. It really is alot like boating.
    I did get offered a load of shingles to take me home today, but i told them I would like to wait until I got the inverter. My wife understood and agreeded with the decision. She has been great!
     
    The Challenger, ATLKING30 and MtDewMan Thank this.
