I had a 9:00 am appointment at the Harley Dealer in Lakeland to have my bike put on the dynamometer. I had put on a breather to get more air to the engine and want to be sure that it wasn’t running too lean. Larry said he would ride down with me and came over at 8:00 am. We had been over to their place last night and Larry saw a large amount of oil from our van on their driveway. We checked the van before we left and sure enough it was really leaking oil now. I told Cheri she would have to walk down to the pool for her exercise class. On the way down to the Lakeland I remembered that Cheri had an appointment this morning so I called Denise to have her take Cheri for the appointment. I did find out that my bike was running too lean and it was going to cost me too much to have it corrected, so I will be putting the old air breather back on the bike. When Larry and I got home we check out the van and couldn’t see where the oil was coming from so I put more oil in and drove it to the repair shop. It was leaking from a different place than it was before. The van is getting to be a money pit; I hope the end is near. When we got back to our place Larry helped me clean the oil off the concrete, what a mess I had. Later this afternoon Mike L and Mary stopped by and picked up some of the things that we are putting on the yard sale in Baker Acers Saturday. Then it was time for Cheri and me to go and get haircuts. When we got home it was time to get ready for Mike G and Pam to pick us up to go out for supper at Arigato Japanese Steakhouse in Tampa. We had a Groupon for our meals and were very good. On the way home we stopped at Sam’s Club as Pam had a few things that she wanted to pick up. It had been somewhat a stressful day and we were both tired so we headed to bed early.
