THE HOT MESS CONTINUES ...

To sit on my driveway. The plan today is to get The Hot Mess moved to the backyard. It’s too exposed and easily accessible on our driveway. Tim is having to rig a temporary gate on our back fence line to get it back there. Since the new frame to the ‘48 sits in the way belly-up unable to move we will need to come in from the back. Did I mention we live on a bike trail?

We did not realize until The Hot Mess got home that there was not only a toaster oven in a box but a brand new right off the shelf electric grill with the sales information tag still attached to it sitting nestled in a box waiting for the first meal to be prepared on it. By the way someone took the toaster oven from our garbage on garbage day. Ewww!!!

The previous owner loved his morning cup of coffee. He enjoyed a cup of tea on occasion mid afternoon. He took pride in cooking a pot of beans and brauts or the best darn good pot roast in his crock pot. 

He also prepared the coach as best he could before departure. He would lay oil soaked rags over the hubs and even laid out bars of soap about to help keep rodents at bay. Well the rodents ate what they could of those bars. I felt a bit intrusive on the move. I didn’t judge. Only soaked it in and imagined what his time there would have been like.
