Out on the Road

We pulled over last night to sleep. We needed fuel desperately but the gas station where we were spending the night was closed. Therefore, we couldn't turn on the generator because we were almost out of fuel. It was okay because it wasn't very hot. We just opened the windows and the vent right over our bed. If you don't know, we drive a racecar hauler which is a freightliner with living quarters. So, we have a bed, couch, table, sink area, and bathroom. Our bed is up over the cab and there is a vent with a fan directly over the bed. In the middle of the night, it started raining in the vent and onto our bed. Plus, we have a vent that keeps coming up on our trailer, so it may have leaked inside the trailer last night.

Then, as we were driving today, people on a motorcycle drove up beside us pointing to the back. We pulled onto the side of the road and found that our trailer electric cord had drug the ground and split apart. Therefore, we had no trailer lights and no brakes on the trailer. We just had a list of things fixed on our truck. It seems as if the list will never end! Sometimes life on the road really bites!
