Road Troubles

We had another flat tire yesterday. It's become so commonplace for us that I just crawled into the back of the truck and read my book until Brock took care of the problem. A truck driver stopped and helped Brock remove the tire. The beauty of having three axles is that you can ride on just two for a short while. So, that is what we did. We took it into the shop today here in Lynchburg, VA. We happen to have some friends that live here, so we are hanging out with them until the trailer tire is replaced.

I used to freak out when we had road troubles like this. However, after coming up on several fatal accidents, it puts things into perspective. We've seen so many dead bodies on the side of the road. It definately increases your prayer life. We're so blessed that in all the miles that we've driven, we've never experienced a serious accident. A flat tire every now and then is nothing in comparison.
