A fun day in Boulder! Can you tell from the photo where we went? Second clue… there were wonderful smells of hibiscus, peppermint, cinnamon, orange etc. Third clue… we all had to wear hair nets and John had to wear a mustache net but unfortunately no photos were allowed. Fourth clue… the bear Sarah is kissing is Sleepytime (Yes, Kenny was a bit jealous.) The answer is Celestial Seasonings. Having started in a garage, production has expanded to a capacity of 10 million teabags a day. Over 100 different varieties are available and we could have sampled every one but choose not to.
This morning Rob & John took Tillie’s starter motor to Boulder’s VW guru. They were escorted into his inner sanctum for a consultation. They came back with a new improved wiring diagram and special harness this guy designed that supposedly fixes the design problem that Tillie has. In the cool of tomorrow morning, Rob & John will perform “surgery” once again. The good news is that the motor is not “fried” and everything else seems to be working well.
Sarah & Kenny have planned a big party for tonight. We’re hoping they will still be in shape to take us for a picnic and hiking in the mountains tomorrow.
