Changing Earl

I have never changed the oil in anything, until today!  I watched a youtube video, bought some oil, an oil catcher thing, and a filter and got to work.

This is me pondering the situation.

...and draining the oil.

 ...and putting in the new filter.

...and the new oil.

 ...and giving the universal happy sign.  

(I had a different sign ready if things did not go well.)

So, now I am ready to hit the Trans America trail in exactly two weeks from today with new tires and new oil!  I am sure I will think of other stuff to do in the next two weeks.  I will keep ya updated!
