Well, that was sooner than expected

I finally bought a new hubcap to replace the one I lost out on the Lost Coast. I got it on eBay and the tracking info said it would be delivered Friday, February 28. A few days later, when I checked to affirm it had been shipped, it said it would be delivered Monday the 24th. Oh, that’s better. Then this morning, Friday the 21st, I got a notice it had been delivered. Already? Cool.

But since my mail forwarder in Quartzsite is closed Saturday and Sundays I wouldn’t be able to pick it up until Monday. Unless I drove the 160 miles from Vekol Valley today, Friday. And that’s what I did.

The spankin’n new hubcap makes the old wheel look grungy in comparison. I guess I could rehab the wheels. Or I could just let the hubcap get dirty and road-worn.

Meanwhile, that golfer back in Vekol Valley is free to hit his balls around—unless someone else occupies that spot. I do hope so.
