A Morning With Thompson

Every good morning begins with coffee, so we had a special brew of Ethiopian beans from Barista Dan's Millenium Falcon Espresso machine. Yum!



Then out to the driveway to do a refurb on Thompson's battery posts.

Thompson's car is a 1996 Toyota he purchased with his own earnings.

I stood around and held things while he pulled the battery and cleaned the posts and connecting cables. Next job will be to get a trickle charger to restore battery health.

As you can see it is a beautiful March day here in the frozen north: a bit below zero but sunny, sunny, sunny. The snow is starting to recede and spring can't be far away.




Afterwords, Thompson came on a walk with me on my out-and-back route. As part of my Refurbing Rob program I walk a set distance each day, gradually increasing the distance over time. A month ago I could only manage a few blocks. Now I am up to 2.5 km daily so, Tada!
