We're back in Seguin, TX, sitting at the Tyson plant, waiting for a load of fresh chicken headed to - you guessed it - Walnut, CA and Oxnard, CA. Seems like these two Sysco Food Services centers have a standing weekly order for chicken.
This trip isn't exactly the same as last time, however. This morning we had to swing by Big Rig Truck Accessories in New Braunfels, TX and pick up a new cover and latch kit for our APU generator compartment. It seems we "lost" the old ones somewhere between Deming, NM and San Antonio last week.
I thought it would be a fairly straightforward process to put on the new latches (and being a good "company man" I figured we could save Prime the cost of an installation), so we just picked up the new items and headed for Seguin where I proceeded to undertake the installation while Lori did a load of laundry at the local laundramat.
I don't think my hands will ever be clean again. What I thought would be a relatively quick and simple job ended up requiring my crawling around under the truck to remove the bottom cover of the APU compartment and then squeezing my fingers into two little openings to loosen and re-attach some screws, a process that took a good hour to complete. I'm still on the lookout for a bar of Lava soap to get the grease out from under my fingernails.
Anyway, we're hoping to be back at home again Thursday afternoon/evening.
