Dammit, Dammit, Dammitttttt! So my family has been busy with a new
member of the family all summer. Finally got them all in the truck to
head for the lake. Quick 23 mile trip to Mashapaug, Coming up the last
long hill, right before the exit I hear the unmistakable harmony of a
tire about to go. Come off the exit with a shattered tire. Grab
everything we can off the boat, load into the blazer and take the
family home and regroup. Grabbed the cooler, some sandwiches, and a
guitar and went to wait out AAA. Now of course we are showing rain for
the next few days, this sucks.

I think I might buy 2 tires and hubs as a 50 dollar spare would have
saved the day. Could have been worse, a few years back I spun an axle
in South Carolina, another time, a water pump in Virginia. I don't
have good luck with cars either.
