I stopped in at this Costco way north of Seattle today to run in and buy some warm gloves, while out on a fall country back road drive through some of the sprawling agricultural areas of Western Washington.
The fall colored leaves on the deciduous trees along these slow, winding roads of course were brilliant and beautiful, lit up like giant flaming tiki torches.
And recent heavy snow was glowing bright white in the strong low sunlight hitting the tops of Hurricane Ridge on the Olympic Range west, and on the heights of the dormant volcano we call Mount Baker to the north.
But my biggest surprise (and treat) for the day perhaps was seeing this sparkling new INEOS Quartermaster up close, parked right out in front of the main entrance of Costco, with the price sticker in the window showing you that you could now actually buy one of these amazing rigs with the assistance of this great discount store!
When a big national box store like Costco now promotes the sale of your pricey, custom bespoke vehicles, I guess you can say you have finally reached the pinnacle of your success, INEOS!
Anyway, with great effort and sadness I was able to keep my checkbook in my pocket and I escaped from the store back out to our tiny camper van to continue our travels, with only a few pairs of thick wool blend socks, a pair of black insulated gloves, and a big jar of M’nM peanut candles to show for my efforts 😁.
So no, no new $93,000 truck for me today 🫤.
