    First stop was Murphy. Where their customer cancelled the order because "it was too expensive and they could get it locally".
    So I went to FMC Hardy for 5pcs 387#. Which I have brought to SDV.

    You are correct, sir! My 18-year-old pregnant daughter (due 12/29). And with all the stuff my wife is doing for this ceremony, I'll be lucky if I don't have to leave Sunday!

    I think I did something else.....
    Oh yeah! Called the nice lady at the bank and she said hurry.
    I called and told him that. And went tearing down the highway to the bank.
    On the way back to SDV my right front tire threw the tread. Not ALL the tread.
    It left enough to slap the fender and door pretty good.
    Got the spare on that I don't REALLY trust as it shows cracks in the sidewalls.
    Went to SDV and waited a long time for 3pc going to Exterran
    Prior to that we put a 402# crate going to Manchester Terminal.
    Went to Exterran and got rid of that stuff.
    Got to Manchester at 1:30. Finally got out at 4:00
    Ran to my favorite tire shop in Cut'n'Shoot and got a couple decent Firestone 265/70-17 tires for $120.
    Rolled in home at 6:30.
