I am at the behest of those who have pickup trucks. My amigos unexpectedly arrived early this morning with a pickup truck saying I needed to go pick out my refrigerator and stove in Filadelphia. I love that charming village . It's about a 45 minute drive through winding mountain roads.
I also needed to pick out floor tile, polyurethane, etc.
The loading process
And this is the park behind the pickup truck. We ate lunch there. How many iguanas do you see?
Minor Romancing the Stone crossing in dry season but during wet season, you'd be washed right into the Pacific.
I arrived alive but too late to post a new edition of AllHatNoCattle.
See you on Monday. Have a great weekend!
Peace.

Court rules gun maker Remington can be sued over Newtown shooting
A divided Connecticut Supreme Court has ruled gun maker Remington can be sued over how it marketed the Bushmaster rifle used to kill 20 children and six educators at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012. Justices issued a 4-3 ruling that reinstated a wrongful death lawsuit...

My God.
A software fix to the Boeing 737 MAX was delayed for months as discussions between regulators and Boeing dragged on—and U.S. officials said the government shutdown halted work on the fix for five weeks.
Republican Shenanigans
Looks Like Trump Lost His Base In The House
In overwhelmingly bipartisan vote, House calls for Mueller report to be made public The final vote count was 420 in favor, with no one voting no. Four lawmakers voted “present.”
