Scattered road notes

Last of the great images.

Airline note:
I prefer Southwest so I guess I won’t make any cracks about safety issues. Or how their problem isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be?

Billing:
“I was telling the guy, the quick way to figure it is material times three to get the labor charge, and if that isn’t enough, add in the material charge one more time. He told me he’d heard that before.”

Desert Air:
My lovely hosts didn’t think to hook up the gas in the trailer, as it had been on a road trip (work) and the weather wasn’t that cold. Except at night. The trick was an electric blanket, under the bedding. Like sleeping on a hot pad – a little slice of luxury.

Geography:
Local terms: “Lower Valley,” and “East Side.”

Update:
Earthquake!
