Who says going to breakfast is boring!!What did I do WITH my Ranger today?
Well, it started off with me falling out of bed onto the floor, oh wait, that’s another story.
I started the Ranger remotely while I was gathering up all my ”get in the Ranger and go stuff” and donning my flop hat so as to look much cooler to go out in public. Then I casually meandered out yonder to where the Ranger is backed under the carport so as to protect if from the burning sun which was not acting very “sun like” today. I reached into my pocket and pressed the Ranger remote unlock button while stumbling down the back deck steps, opened he drivers door, gathered all of my bone rattling might, and popped up into the Ranger driver seat while adjusting my lumbar support cushion into the proper position. Then I pushed the little silver switchblade button which popped out the key, and inserted it into the ignition and turned it one click which then officially brought the Ranger to life. Then, as I mentioned in another post, I shifted the transmission selector lever into NEUTRAL and left it idle for a few moments while fastening the choke straps, adjusting the ”climate control”, checking the fuel level, battery voltage, and searching the best Sirius XM channel.
To make a long story short, I drove to Smithfield to the Gourmet Bakery, had french toast with country ham of course washed down with four cups of coffee.
Then I drove the Ranger home and backed her into her protective carport.
THE END
(PS, it’s so nice to drive the Ranger without that grinding center support bearing)

But it's nice here and everyone's super friendly and very quiet which is a nice change from being up in the Phoenix area.
