Road Trip is Go!

Next t step is getting my car in travel ready. I want:

Oil change

4 adequate tires for mostly freeway driving. 30 mph dirt road capable. Last 10,000-50,000 miles or 1 year more.

Fix the door latch with something better than duct tape

Check transmission fluid

🤞Fix the windshield wiper fluid pump

Check main battery.

Less than $1500

After that is done, I can go!

I have to be back in Abilene by late October for dental work.

So. I may not get to the Wyoming game. Car has to be ready, but eclipse and Utah State game are definitely on the map. From there? TBD

Road trip idea

Fresno State Football is ranked again! They will be playing the Cowboys @Wyoming, Laramie, WY on 10/7. Then at @UtateState, Logan, UT

No, they’re the Utah State Aggies. The Utes play for Utah. But that’s not all!

The Annular Eclipse of 2023 will occur over North America. This is a good warm up for the Total Eclipse coming 4/8/24. Can’t wait to share that one with family and friends!

So I’m going to share my experience as if it was a blog that I’d try to live off of. Monetize it. Why not? 😉 The American way!

What’s that? I don’t know anything about making money off of a blog? True. That’s why god invented AI. To help me. I’m going to tell my story. I think I’ve lived an interesting life. I’m going to try to get it as close to correct as possible. Then record it. To make a McLaughlin Museum.

Then put a Disneylandish merchandise opportunity at the end of it. Creatively make money. Instead of slavishly.
