Pearl percussion kit

After trying for about a week to trade my air compressor for something bigger and better, I finally got someone who wanted to trade.  The problem was he is in Acworth Georgia.  That's about a 2 hour drive on a good day from where I was coming from. Also the person wanted to trade in the evening just after rush hour.  With no luck from before on trading my Old Red Air Compressor I said let's do it.  I kept asking myself  "is this worth it, I know I really wanted this air compressor off my hands but really; Acworth?"  Well I rolled the dice on the trade and scheduled a time and location in Yes Acworth GA. 


I really wish there was a magic flying car for trade at the stop and rob gas station close to my house and again all I was thinking was  "Why am I doing this?"  Oh yeah to trade to get a family car.  The drive to Acworth and back wasn't fun, really could have used a flying car then.

As I started my drive, the rain came down very hard and with the rain there must have been great white shark teeth coming down as well.  What with all the people who had flat tires along the way.  It took me a little over 2 hours to get to Acworth and I don't know how I did that. 

The guy I was trading the Air Compressor wanted to test it , but we ere at a gas station, not really a plug to plug it in. He said he had a plug inverter for the car, plugged in the Air Compressor and turned it on, then his inverter goes pop.  But he said it sounded good enough to say it's good and traded for a pearl percussion set with a zildjian cymbal and stand.


Things I learn:
1.  Georgia Rain brings tire popping Great White Shark teeth.
2.  Air Compressor's pluged into an AC/DC converter plugged into a car go POP.  


see what I traded for.
