My car has been acting up lately. Sometimes it doesn't start after it's been sitting overnight. Jim would jiggle the battery cable and it would start. But the cable couldn't be tightened any more than it already was. Taking off the wire and cleaning the terminal didn't help. On the way home from the movies we stopped at Big T Tire in Avon Park, on the slight chance they could help us out on short notice. They were very nice and took the time to check it out for us. In a very short time they diagnosed the problem. The metal contact lining on the terminal end of the battery cable was worn due to age. They promptly fixed it and we were on our way for less than $20. If anyone is in this area, we can heartily recommend them. They provide full service for trucks and RV's too.
Nothing much else happened today. Just another lazy day.
28 days till we leave to go North.

Nothing too much better than a cheap, fast car repair! Sometimes luck goes your way.
Now if it would just carry through to the lottery... ;c)
