3/26/13 (Tuesday) - weather was sunny and hot, temp. about 88
degree
We want to buy some more things, first: we want to buy bread (we like Safeway bread), second: Tom needs to buy another pair of shoe, because his shoes had a crack. Third: I want to go to Chase and get some cash. Tom asked me to check on his phone to look for closest Safeway location. Tom said looked for the Safeway on the south side, So I chose and told Tom to keep driving on Valencia, but it was too far on the East side past Kolb Road. We got lost, because the road sudden change on the left side and we decided to find another location. We found one on the Gulf Link and Wilmot. We found French Rolls 12 CT. for $2.99 and Lemonade for $.99 a gallon. We also bought donuts 2 for $1. We went back to our truck and started eating the donuts and rolls with the Lemonade. We found cheap gas for $3.39 right on the same corner lot, which we have not seen for a while.
We continued travel North of Campbell Ave. Tom turns West on Fort Lowell Road and found the Sunbelt Rentals, we looked around for the right equipment to rent to level the land. While we were looking a man come over and helped us to decide which one for the job. We went back inside the building and found out it cost $415 a day. The price included equipment 318D which we needed, deliver, and insurance but we need to fill up the diesel after used. We walked in the Goodwill store to look around the place; I found a nice shore for Tom.
Then we drove back south to Valencia. Went inside Big Lot to see if there was anything to buy, we did not found any. We went to Walmart just to buy saltines and simply peach. Next we went to Lowe’s buy 2x4x20 ft (qty of 4 @ $8.39/ea). We have the employees help us cut down to 18 feet. The guy told us their saw was not working properly. I just told them we need to cut it down, otherwise not going to fit our truck. It would be too long and not safe to drive back home.
We also bought 23/32” x4x8 T & G (qty of 5 @ $28.97/ea); 2x4x96” (qty of 26 @ $2.77/ea). After I paid for the woods, I asked them to help me load the wood to our truck. They asked us what we are going to do with this wood. Tom told them we are going to build storage. While Tom drove back home we passed by Chase, but our woods were too long to go inside the parking lot. We decided to go back next day. We drove back home slowly. Tom used the long way home (it mean Valencia, Camino Verde and then turn right at Ajo Highway, to Kinney at McDonald’s).
We filled up our water tank and unload the woods on the ground. Then I went back inside and cut up the Sushi and Japanese noodles for dinner. We took some leftover 4 in thick flat concrete pad to build a platform for sawing.
