I bought a couple of chairs, and after a couple of hours sitting in the first one I wanted to get up and go outside. I couldn’t as the chair was fastened to a Boeing. Even in high zoot section you don’t want to be sitting there as long as the flight as those seats get more uncomfortable the further you fly.
My first chair had a pedal. I think it’s for in a emergency if the plane is skidding off the runway the driver will ask you to pump it like a brake in hopes of slowing that sky carriage down.
The first leg of my travels was also interesting as the
woman across from me remained covered un in a flirtation cape, blanket and coughed occasional like she had tuberculosis
or her lung was loose. Fortunately, she wasn’t contagious to me.
My second seat on a
older 737 east bound for GEG was way
back on the edge of the high zoot section and had no pedal. Those senior jets must have had better
brakes and needed no assistance stopping from the riders.
My first order of business once the door was open was to get around the woman
on the most forward seat, who on boarding fussed and fussed with her carrion
bag, as she had to have blankets eye masks, head phones moisturizer, special
hydration, and who knows what all for a
45 minute fright from SEA to GEG, and you guessed she had to put all that stuff back in her bag to be
able to pack it off the sky carriage.
I said excuse me rather loud and she scampered back into her
area to fuss with her stowing and not impede me and who knows how many hundreds of humans that were behind me cramed
into the most popular for airlines jet in the sky.
Once in the terminal I needed to use the restroom and did so.
I hadn’t been on the ground very long
and was still adjusting to seeing no snow, and thinking that the light jacket I
had worn from home where it was negative 27 when I left ,was going to be to
warm when I had the misfortune of spotting a felon 47 cult member in full
regalia with a felon 47 hat but what really said I am a racist was the big red
T shirt with printing large enough for the blind to read that boldly stated “ I’m
charlie kirk, jesus and guns. “
Where Ice Gal lives, racism is wrong. Celebrating a racist is wrong. And being a racist is wrong. If you feel different then this probably isn’t the blog for you.
The van with a name roared to life once the battery cables
had been connected to the battery. This disconnecting the battery seems to be
working out.
With the van loaded and stocked up it was time to head out. But first I had to fill up with water, and doing so discovered that my water heater was now a artesian well. This was not good because with all the water leaking out the water heater, I had no water for flushing the toilet, washing dishes…
I didn’t quite know what to do but down the road in Pasco I
passed the Blue Wave RV shop. I had a really good experience with replacing the
house batteries at their shop in Liberty Lake, so I thought why not stop and
see what they could do.
Only one person in the service department, but he dropped
his other jobs to come out and take a look at the van with a name. Yes, the water heater was history, but Joe
knew where the valves were to bypass the
heater, and after removing a panel under the refrigerator he closed the valves
and now the rest of the plumbing is working great.
And the hot water not to worry, I found an new hot spring
just a little ways past Burns Oregon called Crane Hot Springs. Definitely worth
a stop if you are in the neighborhood. It even has a RV Park
