Yesterday I actually cleaned up the area I posted and had some time left to take care of a few more close by. I was reminded today from one of my customers that I have been doing their sprinkler blowout for 9 years. With many customers I have watched their children grow from just born to grade school, and even high school. Time sure flies……..
What I didn't mention was the night before last on my way home I blew another tire on my compressor, so unfortunately had to leave it along the side of Amity Road between Eagle and Cloverdale. Picked up two new tires and rims yesterday so I would have a spare in case it happened again. For those who want to know, I am sure it is the wheel bearings going out. With over 10,000 sprinkler blowouts with that machine, I work it hard. So, today, I am going to have the wheel bearings replaced or repacked at Les Schwab; whichever it needs. That should only take about an hour, so I can back on the road in pretty short order.
Originally, I was planning on being out of the Boise 83709 zip code by Saturday, but looks like I will have to extend that until Sunday. Sunday night I will redo my "tentative" schedule with more updated information including the remaining of the Boise zip codes, Garden City, Eagle, Star, Kuna, Middleton, Melba, Nampa, Caldwell, etc.
