A solar panel, auxiliary battery, power inverter and a blender can go a long way towards inner peace!

Bruce I am an American and I have stopped many times to help, actually every time I have seen someone who I think needs help,
regardless of the nationality of those in need.

PANTYHOSE - Great for a temporary fixes on fan belts and I’ve heard alternators.
My fan belt broke coming back form Las Vegas about two years ago. This nice guy stopped and helped me. So flabbergasted, I didn’t ask him how he knew
it would work. Better yet, why he had them. Hey, it’s California.

How about one little deck of cards.
After a great day of fun in the sun you can play strip poker .... or
if things aren't going so well, solitaire!
