Fit ok for towing, but it was a chore!

 Finally retrieved the Fit from the welding shop today, after two tries, and a parts chasing trip down I-95-  Saved about 250 dollars all told-  They did a nice clean job, and a very good job of securing the wiring harnesses for the lights on the Fit, as opposed to just running the wires down the chassis like they did on the Malibu.  We had to take the coach down to the shop to change out a fitting on the hookup- but the lights worked fine the first time.  Bette is a tad nervous about towing the Fit for the first time, which we will do Monday - but we'll follow directions and it will be fine. 
Bob and Carl were set back a tad from the original schedule on the pantry project, due to the mud for the taping not setting up quickly, so they will be at work tomorrow-  Carl managed to leave a very fine layer of sanding dust all over the back room and kitchen today-  ugh.  After Thanksgiving, they are to head back and start on reflooring basically most of the rest of the house. 

Cooper and Tina will be leaving SC in a short while, not sure if they are leaving at 330 right after school or at 530 when she gets off of work... they have about a 6-7 hour drive down here to Florida. Suspect we may bag going to the yard sales tomorrow as planned, and stay local since the workmen will be here-  Sides, Coop and I can go to McDonalds like we used to.... 

Coolish and rainy and cloudy most of today, very windy also, but it is supposed to be near perfect weather the rest of the week.
