Road Debris Killed our Tire. Day 26. In the middle of nowhere, ND

Gratitude: my husband Keith. The person who pantomimed "tire explosion" as she drove by. The State Trooper who was nice.

Oh and the double axel and personal torque wrench. Thank you FB advisors. RvMiles and Winnebago Minnie Users Group

    Glad you are safe. That could have been much, much worse.

Now we head to Florida for a few weeks and home.
