Morning at Tinley-Tee Tire & Auto Services
This morning I stopped at the tire shop JT's recommended, Tinley-Tee Tire & Auto Services, to see what they recommend to replace the worn rear duallies on the Lazy Daze and to see when they might be able to put them on. They recommended Firestones, had them in stock, quoted me a fair price, and put them right on. There. That's done. Now everything is ship-shape and I'm ready to roll roll roll.
Quick, competent, friendly service. We like it.

Norden Bombsight training at Deming NM
During the Second World War, Deming was again the designated location for a training base. This time, the Deming Army Air Base was established east of town to train young airmen in the use of the secret Norden bombsight. The trainees were processed in groups of 500 every 6 weeks, and they flew their missions in the 150 AT-11 Beechcraft trainers, designated the Kansan, each armed with up to 10 practice bombs.
