What A Day..

Today was a fun one, for sure. Ron and I went to pick up the RX-7, and took it for a ride. Granted, the clutch line did break in half and started leaking fluid all over the place... but hey, we got it fixed! We were driving down the road, and Ron starts pumping the clutch.

"This clutch is really loose!"

I look over.

"Uh-oh..."

The fluid was drained and Ron couldn't shift it into gear. Woops!!! We were able to get it to a gas station, buy some brake fluid, and fix the problem, though. We headed back home to see if Ron had a spare clutch line, and... Surprise, surprise!! There was none to be found. By that time, the air had bled out of the clutch, though, so it was tighter than it had been before. He looked over at me.

"Should we still go up the canyons?"

"Uh.... Yeah.."

We drove to Big Cottonwood Canyon, and had an absolute blast! (Poker night had been postponed.) RX-7's handle like a dream. We took some great pictures, too! Here they are!!

Ron REALLY enjoying his new car!

The hillside up Parley's Way. (Ron took a wrong turn...)

The cloudy sky at the mouth of Big Cottonwood.

The sunset on the way to Big Cottonwood.

He said it reminded him of something in the ocean..

Talk about breathtaking.

Er... Damn telephone lines..

Taken while driving!

And look!! A telephone pole!!! Er.. and a pretty sunset.

Just look at those sunrays...

The setting sun, and the purple sky..

Again, taken while driving, but look at the pretty tree!

Looking down into a gulley near the top of the canyon.

Look at this nifty tree!!!

Look at this blurry nifty tree!

Another day closes..

Another night begins...

The quarter moon.

It's trying to hide...

<.<

Hope you enjoyed your trip through the canyon!! Next time will be during the day, so the pictures will be much better. :)

I hate this part...

I honestly can not stand the first post of a blog. You know what I am talking about.

"Hi, my name is (insert name here). Welcome to my blog! This is a blog all about my life and love and blah blah blah..."

Why don't we just get right into it?

So, I'm sitting here at work on another very slow Friday. I've got the medical records done that I can do, calls are made, charts are pulled and prepped. I have to be here until four o'clock to answer phones, but everyone else has left already. You'd think that would be license to get very bored. Eh, idle hands are the playground of the devil, right?

I really don't mind the slow days. It is nice to be able to catch up with my thoughts. (Besides, the first two days of the week are busy, busy, busy!!) Aside from that, who can let a slow day get to them when it is almost the weekend? Exciting, right? Heh... Not that we do much more during the weekends than we do throughout the week.

Speaking of 'we'... Oh forget it, I use every excuse I can to bring Ron into a conversation. Ha! Look, there he is. Anyhow, he is just itching to get his hands on his new vert RX-7. I don't blame him. I love convertibles, and it's in such good shape! It's an '89 but it only has 83,000 miles on it. AND THE A/C WORKS! On an RX-7! That never happens. lol. Granted, he is thinking of trading it plus $2,500 for another RX-7 later on, but quite honestly, the guy he's thinking about trading it to actually has the money to restore it to perfection, so I don't mind. The more mint rotors running around this valley the better.

And here comes a patient... Heh. I guess I'll add more later!
