Description

Ok, so I'm retarded. In my last post, I bitched because I couldn't get the brakes disassembled on my car. Turns out I was reading the repair manual incorrectly. There were two pages with several rows of pictures with captions saying how to proceed, and I was reading them across both pages, rather than across each page individually. So the parking brake cable disconnect was actually several steps further down from where I was supposed to be. Looks like I'll be pulling the wheels off again tonight and doing the job right this time.

I'd intended to replace the rear brake shoes on my car today, but I couldn't even get past step one in the repair manual. Well, I actually got the wheel and the brake drum off, but I couldn't disconnect the parking brake cable from the trailing brake shoe. The spring on that damned thing is so strong that no tool I have at my disposal will compress it far enough to disconnect the end of the cable. And if I can't do that, I can't remove the shoe and replace it. I got really fed up and just put the drum and wheel back on, and I'm not sure what I'm going to do next. Bolt cutters sound like fun, but I actually want to be able to drive the car when I'm finished.

This weekend was ok. Saturday I set out with Mark to find a bunch of caches and just have some fun. The day got off to a good start, but things went slower than I'd planned. We only found seven caches, out of a planned 15. I wanted to place a cache in Fly Canyon, which we did, though the hike wore me out and I eventually got a bad headache. That combined with how late it was getting contributed to us just going down Huntington Canyon and home, instead of cutting over to Scofield.
