Tranquility Tour, Portland.

0:10.8

Bonjour, this is Kimberly.

0:13.0

Hey, it's Tim.

0:14.1

And we are here in the lovely land of Portland.

0:18.8

Wow, we just, everybody's ears out.

0:21.2

We're doing handheld mics because just the way we're doing it.

0:24.8

And now we're apparently playing the Philadelphia podcast.

0:29.0

If you didn't think this was live, now you know.

0:31.6

Now you know.

0:33.5

Good job, bunny.

0:34.6

Yeah.

0:34.9

Well, anyway, so our levels are all over the place.

0:37.1

So sorry for blowing out your ears, listeners. So Portland. Yeah, so Portland. So we haven't chatted with anyone for 24 hours. And what has happened? All sorts of fun things. Let's see. We drove away from Seattle. And we slept in a rest stop. Slept in a beautiful restop and woke up to fog off of the Columbia River. Well, I didn't because I didn't get out of bed for 40 minutes after that. I was so tired. Yeah. Well, yeah. I brushed my teeth at a gas station and washed my face there too. That was lovely. I think it's now that we since it's just like 24 hours between podcasts, our level of detail goes way, way. Yeah. Like, so I did. I brushed my teeth since we last spoke. Yeah. Last night we talked about bears in national parks in Canada. And now we're like teeth brushing. I brushed my teeth this morning and it was good. Oh, talk about Lily's new wheels. We have, like, the most amazing chrome, like, spectacular, hemp and wheels.

1:31.2

Yeah, and the continuing saga of I have a garage is not to recommend.

1:35.5

I have a garage not to recommend in Portland because they said, hey, yeah, we can totally

1:39.5

take care of all that you need to get done when I called them like a week ago or four days ago. I pull in there

1:46.1

and they're like, yeah, no, we can't do that. She's too big. She's too big. I'm like, so the whole

1:51.9

this is a mini-camper discussion that we had that doesn't ring a bell. So anyways, I went to

1:58.9

Leshawab and those of you who know the area, I know Leshwab is the place to go for tires. And for those of you who are on the East Coast and know Wegmans, I refer to Les Schwab as the Wegmans of tires. You have to be in a very narrow demographic to understand how cool that is. You know Wegmans, yeah. So, yeah, we went there and the guy comes out and this guy is like, this guy just must know everything about tires, which I think is hyper cool. You know, it's like to know everything about one like kind of cool little area. He walks out, takes one look at it, goes, yeah, those are 16 and a half inches. They don't make those anymore. And I'm like, what? They don't make, they don't do what? And so, so he explained how, you know, on this

2:35.8

particular type of vehicle, which is a Chevy van, that they used to make them on 16 and a half

2:41.4

inch tires and that really the standards are 16 and 17. And for some reason, they decided, let's,

2:46.9

let's do 16 and a half. Let's be wacky. And apparently they, they failed frequently, which is not good for a tire. And so he said, not only do you have to get new tires, but you need to get new wheels so that the new standard, the standard size can fit on it. So they are so shiny. We ended up with these like, oh my God, like chrome, like chrome, like lily is just,
