The Stroller is Still Broken

This is, unfortunately, not working out very well. We saved money by getting a used stroller, but now we're having to pay exorbidant prices to get a $15 replacement wheel shipped to us internationally! If we decide to do so, they won't be able to ship it until Monday and we don't know how long it will take to get here. So, we're not sure how long we're going to be out of commission. Quite the bummer, but we're trying to go with the flow! Doug even went to a hardware store and a welding guy to see if they could fix it. They said 'imposible'. We may try a couple other places to see if we can find someone with a tig welder (sp). That's what Doug's engineer brother, Derek, says we need for aluminum.

sorry to hear about your broken wheel, I'm sure it's frustrating, guess it could be worse. Glad you're going with the flow :)

I've enjoyed looking at your pictures too, God's creation is so beautiful from the trees (a personal fav.)to the buildings He's created man with the ability to build.

What a bummer! So sorry to hear about this - man, no stroller is tough! Hopefully something will work out - and soon!
Amazing how many posts you keep popping out! Thanks for keeping us so well updated!
Looks like delicious steak too - I think Caleb would travel there just to get some of that stuff! ;)
