Surf’s up
In an earlier post, I told you how our car is getting demon-pounced, or so it seems. So, has something broken this week? No. Last week? No. Hey, 2 in a row is an accomplishment. Turning to the repairs to be done, I just ordered a new suspension system from Dallas, TX because the cost to get something that’s just okay here, can buy and ship me premium goods from there. I went with Old Man Emu shocks all around and replacement rear coil springs for our 1994 Toyota Hilux Surf* from Toyota of Dallas for cost AND shipping totaling $740.00. Big one-time costs are very challenging for faith-supported missionaries. But, you gotta do what you gotta do, right?
I just hope the parts get here before it’s time to leave for our branch conference. There’s a two-hour stretch of unpaved, atrociously rocky road just before the Kenya border. Come on Old Man Emu!
*Just to let you know, the Surf is the Japanese-market 4Runner.
