We blew it!!!







We set out from Devil's Lake pleased that we had coped reasonably well with our adversity. We had been on the road about 70 miles when.... Oooo, that smell, can't you smell that smell..... Burning Rubber..... Blown right rear drive tire. WHAT????? Unload the cougar, drive 40 miles to Grand Rapids, North Dakota, get advice, drive back to the Enterprise, drive the Enterprise at 30 MPH back to Grand Rapids. I was following along behind the Enterprise in the air-conditionless Cougar grooving away to the radio. Took an awefully long time at 30 MPH to go 40 miles. We got to Big Jim's Tires where John took care of us and had us back out on the highway in under an hour with both arms and legs. Awesome stuff.
We drove to Warba, Minnesota and stopped in for the night at Sal's RV. Dean not only let me use the decorative firepit, but also helped Dave locate the fuse for Dolly's left turn signal. God is good all the time....All the time, God is good.
