May have to drive San Antonio that weekend to return a ladder to my father in law
I should really just go buy one at Lowes.

off topic:

i continue to marvel in the humanity that is now hidden in the crevices of society. most would say it is extinct. yet, not so long ago, one would be considered an animal to pass on an opporitunity to assist someone. nowadays, we expend more effort to avoid helping someone. i have met SATundra. he is real.

i have been learning to let people help me. even if i don't need it. it allows for companionship and our souls to be free. this internet stuff is great. but, it, as everything, can be a crutch. this should be a tool to help others as SATundra has offered here. we should be the ones to show that we are real. that we have power and relationships stronger than the internet. i truly feel this about TS. it is special. but, really, it isn't TS is it? it is you.

i really wish we (wendi and mark) could go to the jam. anyway, i hope i speak for all texans if not all TS'ians. g'night...

Nothing but helpful folks in this group. You should have seen us at the last Houston meet that I attended downtown. Everyone had tools out doing stuff to someone else's truck.

Someone had to come help me keep from throughing my tool box across the parking lot because I kept dropping the screws in the channel of the box. It was a sight.

I'll let you know SATundra. We really need to get away from town but have been busy. I have a mountain biek race this weekend that I am also a volunteer for. I have a road race next weekend in Brookshire and then sometime, I think the EDS global volunteer day is coming and I still help with those when I can all of this between "save Memorial Park" campaign, work and family.

I read offer by SATundra to help out with this situation as well as Mark's response. I must agree, it's nice to see good ol' fashioned friendliness these days.

However, I wonder if an easier solution to this situation would be to simply keep your father-in-law's ladder and, instead of driving to SA to return it and then buying yourself one at Lowe's when you get back to Houston, just mail him a check and let him buy a new ladder in SA?

I thought about that and then I went on the web to try and price his ladder. It is a $450.00 ladder. "HOLY COW!" I am way too cheap for that. It was not a Lowes purchase for him I bet he got it on the base.

I see. I was assuming you'd be buying a similarly-priced ladder with my suggestion.

Good luck on that deal!

I may be mis-understanding you but I priced the exact ladder of his that is in our garage now waiting to be returned to him and it is over $400.00. When we thought the ladder was only a $100 to $150 ladder, we would have just sent him the money. For that price, we will drive it back to him (should visit anyway) and buy a $100.00 ladder when we return.

I realize you guys will probably take a trip down here, but my offer still stands. Just let me know, would be glad to lend a hand.
