February Banter and Location
- Thread starter OntarioVanMan
- Start date
Least Agreement specifies 2 blankets for van, 4 for box and straights, and 6 for tractors. I already had 2 in there, as per the agreement (and as per what I've needed in the past), but now have 4 as per the QC message. I used to carry 4, but never neded more than 2 in a van, so I got rid of the other 2. Can't remember what I did with them. They're stored somewhere.
Incidentally, the Lease Agreement also specifies a Nextel phone with GPS tracking and Internet package. That probably needs a re-wording or two. It's a little too specific to be a euphemism for "cell phone and Qualcomm unit".
Chris, I like that i'll try to find a harbor freight when I empty. In that area, if you do let me know. The effingham, flora, Marshall are is home for me. No harbor freight. Google for them though and I'm sure some are to be found. Pretty small areas but very resourceful.
Also when in Salem, the tire place. " Salem tire " is a good service center and a good place for tires. I have been getting mine there for 10 yrs. Craig lingafelter tell him I sent you . Really though. Pretty good place.

Are the car plants open Monday?
Probably not. Fed and State are off. Banks are closed.

Great. Seems like every other week between the 2 countries.
I gave up when I got to this:
In Alabama the third Monday in February commemorates the birthdays of both George Washington and Thomas Jefferson (who was born in April).

In Laredo, they celebrate Washington's Birthday for an entire month, from mid-January to the end of February (it's happening right now, this very minute!), because, apparently, Washington did soooo much for Laredo and Tejas.
It is the largest celebration of its kind in the United States with approximately 400,000 people attending annually. Current and upcoming events of the celebration are all listed at the WBCA Website.
The celebration consists of various festivals; a Society of Martha Washington Colonial Pageant & Ball, Princess Pocahontas Pageant and Ball (because when you think Pocahontas, you think Laredo), parades (like, every day), a carnival, an air show, fireworks, live concerts and a city-wide prom during which many of the Laredo elite dress in Colonial attire. One of its main events, the Jalapeño Festival, has recently been named one of the United States' top 10 eating festivals.
It was founded in 1898 by the Improved Order or Red Men, Local Chapter Yaqui Tribe 59. The first celebration was a phenomenal success and its success and popularity grew rapidly. In 1924, the Celebration featured its first Colonial Pageant, which featured thirteen young girls from Laredo, representing the Thirteen Original Colonies, because, you know, they were of prime importance to the history of Texas. The WBCA has become a Laredo institution, with its history closely tied to the history of the community.
It's a fun time to be stuck down in Laredo for an extended period of time, actually. This coming Sunday is the big H-E-B Fireworks Extravaganza. Seen that one a few years ago from the J, and the next year saw it from much closer. It's awesome.
