Dad changing our flat tire.

We took our camper in today to get a window fixed, the awning spring fixed, a crack taken care, and the refrigerator hose replaced.  It was pouring when we took it.   Later we took a ride.  Went and had a malt (dad had a shake) and split an order of fries.  We had a flat tire so dad had to change it.  We didn't see anything in it so went to Discount Tire in Midland as it was pretty close and we wanted to have it checked out.  We just got new tires in Feb.  They found a slash in the side of it and gave us a new $175 tire for $26.  They also rotated our tires for free.  We were happy they replaced the tire for that amount.  Last night  I sprayed the bees nest.  Dad and I had gone to Home Depot to look at things to clean gutters out.  The thing Bill was looking at was $79.  I told him we needed to think about it as a sales guy was helping us.  I thought the gutter pipe was blocked but went out after dark and got on the ladder to try to clean it out and stick something down it.  It was only leaves and stuff blocking it.  I cleaned it out and the water went pouring down.  Yay.  No expensive equipment needed.  Thank you Lord.   Today I cleaned the other two gutter ends out and no more waterfall over in front of the garage.  So happy.  Made spaghetti for dinner tonight.
