I had an uncle come down from Illinois last week and we were planning a big family gathering to introduce the newest members of the clan. On our way south, we made it 20 miles before being stranded on the side of the highway.
I had recently replaced tires on my car and they replaced my serpentine belt as well. It split right in half on the highway. We couldn't get s tire truck and had to turn around at a service entrance to go back. One exit away from our house, my car over heated and gave out! It was 8 o' clock at night and we had to wait until the following morning. We took it in and found out the water pump gave out!
Finally, the car was fixed and we tried again labor day weekend.
As we were packing to leave it started storming and we got caught in the worst of it. Just a little south of where we broke down last weekend, we were driving in the middle lane when lighting struck right next to us across the highway. I can testify that it's cute is purple, and the white surrounds the center of a lightning bolt. It surged our car and gave the hubby an adrenaline rush! It was kinda cool, but I'll be content if it never happens again. Luckily, baby slept right through!
After the storm, both literal and financial, we finally made it home to introduce baby to my grandparents!
