When we watched the weather this morning they said that there was a wind advisory for the day. Well they were right about the wind as it was very windy and a lot of very strong gusts. We got a call this morning that the truck was done so that was the first thing we did today. Glad to have it back, but I must admit it was nice having the car to use to tour around the area which would have been hard with the motorcycle with the wind and rain showers we have had the last few days. The problem with the truck was an overheating problem that started just as we were coming into Colorado Springs. As it turned out the head gaskets were leaking and had to be replaced. So while they had it apart they put on a new water pump and new thermostats. They also install a new exhaust brake as we had trouble with the old one sticking closed. It was sad that it happened but we couldn’t have been a better place to have it fixed. Once again God was looking out for us. After we got done with the truck shop it was time to take Cheri to a three different quilt shops in and around the city. She is looking for a special material for a quilt that she wants to make and can’t seem to find it. After the quilt shops it was time to go to the Rocky Mountain Motorcycle Museum which turned out to be at the Harley Davidson dealership. They had a lot of antique and classic motorcycles along with a lot of photographs and memorabilia. Of course most of the motorcycles were Harleys and Indians. I did buy a Pikes Peak tee shirt while we were there. We were back at the 5th wheel by 4:30 pm. Neither one of us seem to enjoy the day as much as we should have. I think it is because we have over done it the last few days and need to take a day off and rest. We will see what tomorrow brings us.
