My friend Sarah followed me across town yesterday and informed me that one of my brake lights was out! Thanks for the heads up! I wouldn’t want to be pulled over right now, when I have an interim Alberta driver’s license, Yukon registration, and seemingly expired Yukon insurance (hopefully pink slips are in the mail…)! I decided to get a new bulb today since it was getting really late last night. I asked Gary to show me how to get to the bulb (thanks!) and I drove straight to Canadian Tire this morning.<\/p>\n
The bulb was a #1157 and came in a two-pack for $5, not bad since I would be able to install it myself. I had brought my screwdriver with me, so I changed the bulb immediately in the parking lot. Before reassembling everything, I flagged a lady down and asked her to confirm that the bulb was working. “You did it!” she said, so I slid the thingamabobs into the thingamajigs until they clicked and then screwed the assembly back into the body of the car.<\/p>\n
And not a moment too soon since I passed a bunch of police keeping watch on a parade immediately after pulling out of the Canadian Tire parking lot!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
