Close Call

While filling up the gas tank of our Uhaul truck in Nebraska, I glanced down at the tire and noticed this:



Apparently the inner tire on this side was flat, so all the weight on that side had been going on that one tire. I can't even begin to describe how glad I am that I noticed this and we got it fixed (NOT at our own expense) before the tire blew out.

We'll be in NC on Monday!

Wow...thank goodness you guys caught that.

While you're at it, enjoy some east coast weather for us. We're sure not getting much warmth here yet!

What the H.

I got a flat in a Uhaul in Missouri once. Not fun.

I believe that's a scabrous carbuncle.
