Thank you just doesn’t seem like enough…

I spent today with my brother, Richard.  He had decided that he would like to give Greg and I a “little” something. 

Mom and I headed into town this morning and Mom spent most of her day with Lisa.  Richard and I headed out with a couple of specific destinations in mind.   I never knew there was so much to know about buying a shell for your pickup truck.  It seems it’s no longer simply a matter of long bed versus short bed.  Years and makes have become very important. The beds are no longer square…they have a taper that changes every few years.  We decided that the difference between used and new didn’t warrant the increase in price.  There was a limited selection, but we found two we liked and I needed to chose between. Once that was done, we had  to wait for an hour and a half on the installation.  One more stop to buy a liner for the bed and then we got to have lunch! 

It’s August in Phoenix and it is hot!!  But my brother likes to do things right and he wasn’t happy with the clean up job that they did on the camper. So we hosed it out, did some cleaning up, trimmed and put the bed liner in and then I wilted.

Greg was home when we returned, but didn’t see us come in the driveway. I asked him to come out and help carry some things in…and surprise!!!  He was so pleased!  Now we can have an easier time camping (with my brothers and their families), Greg can haul his RC airplanes to the flying field without the weather being an issue and on trips luggage will stay dry.

As I said, “thank you” just doesn’t seem like enough, but THANK YOU, Richard and Lisa!
