There were several events of note dealing with the preparation of the trip. The first is when Jeffrey, my dad and I were golfing and we wanted to make bets on the round. Naturally I came up with that if Jeffrey and I beat my dad, we would not have to change any diapers on the trip. We both thought that it was a great idea but did not know how my dad would take it so we passed on that bet. Beginning to think that we should have gone for it.
Next great event was when we went to go pickup a wheelchair from a guy that had an ad on craigslist. $25 for a month rental. When we arrive there is a guy sitting in a wheelchair with another wheelchair next to it. Later my mom told me that she almost said "thanks for demoing the wheelchair" before she realized that his legs were as lame as FDRs. Real glad that she didn't say anything.
My mom and I went to go pick up the motorhome. What an absolute dump that place was. We got the demo of the motorhome then I got in to drive and it started then immediately died. Fired it up again and once again it died. I was hoping that this wasn't a sign of things to come. I went and got the overweight white trash looking guy. He looked at me like I was a retard then he jumped in and the same thing happened for him. After a couple of times, he got it started and took it around the block a while. Once he came back, told me it should be ready to go. I took his word for it and drove it to the house.
Looking forward to hitting the road in the morning and breaking grandma out of the old person home.
