Anatomy of a Show Part 3- Ode to Mr. Truck.
This is what our booth looked like at the end of setup day. Still a bit of work to do but working by flashlight wasn't happening. Sleep needed here.
Friday night we got Mr. Truck towed to a nearby shop. Bummertown.
The truck is fixed! Wait a minute, after dinner it stalled on us. Lisa B. mobile mechanic to the rescue here. These are the kind of gals I like to roll with. The truck seemed to start fine most of the rest of the time and we were able to pack it up and get outta there. However, on the way up North in Michigan to reset a booth in Elk Rapids we discovered a leak. Turns out it was brake fluid. We spent 4 hours at the truck mechanic shop getting the master brake line redone. I said goodbye to Lisa B probably 4 times as the truck started and stalled on the way out of my driveway. I was much relieved to know she made it back home last night. You never know what can happen on the road. I'd say we were pretty lucky we didn't have bad problems in the middle of nowhere or lose the brakes altogether!
