It took the repair guys 2 days to get the place running again! It only took from Christmas until today. A job well done! Way to work under pressure! (He is also managing them from out of state.)
Break-In “ Update
The break-in happened on or before Christmas and they are just starting to work on fixing the problems! Wow… you can tell this is run by someone on salary (the bank owns it).
Break-In “ Update
Carwash is still closed! I guess they are taking their time reopening this place. They did change the lock on the door to a chain.
Break-In – Update
I was surprised when I drove by today and the carwash was still closed. I wonder if the robbers messed with the self serve equipment or electrical?
Bad Break In
Greg left me a message telling me that 19th Street had been broken into so I drove by today and took some pictures. He said that they broke into the equipment room, the Hamilton changer and into the Unitec. Just in time for Christmas! I was surprised that the carwash was closed though.
Twice the ICE – Ice House America – Raising prices
The Ice guy up the street raised his prices of his Twice the ICE places to $2.00 from $1.75.
Milk carton seat
Nothing says safety like a milk carton seat.
Purchased a used MEI off ebay.com and it actually worked!
I purchased a MEI Mars AE 2631 D7 off ebay.com and received a D5 but everything worked fine.
I called Mars to ask them the difference between model number D7 and D5. The tech was very helpful and actually knew off the top of his head what the answer was. The D7 part denotes the bill stacker count at 700 bills, D5 500 bills. So games-people-play-and-more (the ebay seller) just did not give me the correct bill stacker but it was a really good deal at $160.
A new hospital opened up?
I was driving by the 19th street car wash today and noticed a new hospital is opening. What is weird is that the house (second picture) does not match the sign (third picture). Middle Creek Medical Center, McCalla
Mildly funny bunper sticker?
“Custer Was Sioux’d”. I would not put it on the paint of my car (or on my car) but it was mildly funny. When I walked into the convenience store I was wondering which employee owned the car. I believe I figured it out. It was the woman that had the Native American magazine (the only time I leave my camera in the car).
