Today, traveling down to the Old truck Museum in Campo. I feel a little like this old 1946 Ford, I’ve been to the Oncologist and survived. I have backups, like the truck has a hole for a crank if the battery is dead. (Imagine trying to start a modern car by cranking it over.) I’m to continue on with my immunotherapy, and everything else is good to go.
Check out the tires on this tour bus. My feet have that barebones look to them too. Even in the new house slippers I got for them, they are old feet. At least they will be safer feet now that I have banished my old favorite moccasins. They were always falling off my feet in an unsafe manner…not OK at all.
And look what I found at the back side of the museum. It’s an SPL 311, A Datsun 1600….and I drove one of these for 12 years. I loved it to death literally. Just looking at it and I can see myself whipping down the freeway, wrapped in layers against the cold and having a ball.
- Himself: Laundry, shopping via the phone, dinner, and training at his game.
- Myself: Got a trip to Goodwill yesterday after the doctor. Found a red T shirt. Maybe too big tho. Got the binding ironed in half. Today I will start sewing it on. OMG
- Reading: Starting into Harry Potter again.
- Watching: Last night NCIS HI. Ken Kramer’s “About San Diego.” Lost buildings.
- Photo: Mine, at the Campo Truck Museum.
- Weather: Chilly, but the sun is supposed to come out.
- Gratitude’s: Such a good day.
Glad your check up went well. Keep up the good work. Now I'd love to take a ride in that tour bus. One cool looking vehicle. I remember wanting a Datsun roadster but couldn't figure out how to transport hay bales in it.
ReplyDeleteI just read something somewhere on the internet that said the last production cars with a crank starter were produced in the 70's! So they were still being made in my lifetime!
ReplyDeleteMy friend is takes immunotherapy as well. It has done wonders for her. Hope it continues to help you too.
ReplyDeleteWhat charming comparisons! Glad your medical plan is laid out. By the time I read your info on the Datsun, I thought you'd compare it's exposed tush to your's! Maybe that's your old car sitting there!? Cool museum. Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteHi Mage, good to see you again. I am glad that you survived chemotherapy and are on the mend. Love all your photos. You have such steady hands and a wonderful eye. Take care. I'll be back.
ReplyDeleteI'm so relieved things are on the upswing for you again. That's a fun looking tour bus.
ReplyDeleteGood news from the oncologist. And today's tires have gone back to those on the old tour bus.
ReplyDeleteYes, we are dealing with personal deterioration issues, just like the cars.
ReplyDeleteI also drove a datsun 1600. How cool. I only had it for a little more than a year and had to move on to grad school. So glad your doctor's gave you the OK to think happy thoughts again!! We may be down your way in February!
ReplyDeleteWonderful, please keep us posted. And what color was yours?
