Re-Tirement, Day 2
Aug. 16th, 2023 10:29 pmWe continued with the process of replacing the tires on the Rolling Stone today as Lisa's stamina and my time to shuttle tires and wheels between our house and the nearby tire shop allowed.
( Shuttling Tires and Dodging Spiders )
The high temperature in the shade today in Fernley was 35°C, but there was not much shade around the RV, and I'm sure the effective temperature in the blazing sun was at least 40°C. This is why Lisa had to take long breaks after each bout with a tire: heat exhaustion was a real threat today.
Tomorrow morning I will shuttle the last wheel and new tire to the shop for mounting and balancing. After reviewing all of the tires, we've decided that for now we'll just keep the existing spare; however, despite it having nearly no mileage on it, we should probably replace it as well, and thus I'll probably order a fifth General Tire Grabber from TireRack soon.
