Some donation supplies for flood recovery in Central Texas.

I was not directly affected.
I live about 100 miles or so SouthEast of the affected area, in NW San Antonio.
Super blessed, and thankful.
Deja Vu, though, since Harvey was a very close call for me.
At the end of 2019, I moved from Houston to NW San Antonio in order to avoid ever being in range of this kind of crazy Gulf Coast flooding ever again...
It's a small World.
Go figure.

This morning I dropped off my *second*, yes second, set of new forged wheels off at Platinum Auto Films with Chris, at Suite 102, for a fresh ceramic coat.

New MITA Motorsports FKS wheel. No photos of car loaded with wheels because I was feeling guilty this morning. I'm not worthy.

Exactly next door is an environmental disaster recover business, National Catastrophe Resoration Inc., "NCRI", at Suite 103. Platinum Auto occupies Suites 101 and 102. Well, this week, NCRI has its door open to accepting donations for Hill Country and Guadalupe River flood recovery.

The Man Upstairs was making it VERY apparent this morning that He wanted me to step up and do what my sorry excuse as a human could do, and NOW.
So, now with an empty car, feeling fortunate, financially stable, privileged, and guilty conscienced AF, I asked the donation team what they needed.

"Clean-Up supplies like shovels and contractor bags and stuff."

I said, "I'll go pick up some supplies and bring them back here."

So I did.
Stopped at Academy for some folding camping chairs, flashlights, and batteries. Then got some cleanup supplies at Home Depot.


Demo bags in the floor.

Camping chairs, garbage bin, and a box of Shop Towels.

Academy bag with flashlights and AAA batteries.
Garbage bin, Gatorade cooler, contractor bags, push broom, sledge hammer, pickaxe.
Inside the garbage bin is also some safety PPE: safety glasses, ear plugs, a pair of ear muffs, and green HiViz vest.

Just kinda wandered around the store before I started to focus and gather useful items.

I don't exactly have "Survivor's Guilt", but what I'm feeling must be very similar.

Take care, y'all.
Awesome, I'm also out in the area

Has anyone fit 4 wheels and 4 tires (unmounted) in their FL5?
I have tires being delivered and now I'm wondering if it can all fit. No tires on the wheels - obviously 4 wheels with tires mounted will fit no problem.
In hindsight, I shouldve had the tires delivered to the tire shop 😅
I had enough room to stick two unmounted tires in there. If the wheels aren't in their retail boxes, I bet you could fit them all.

Then short trip down the coast on this beautiful Sunny 70 degree day. Then found the perfect spot to strike a pose for a glamour shot 😁
