Very Stressful Day

Well as you can see in this picture Ark and Saw had a very stressful day. They are resting on the bed in the motor home. They at one point thought they were going to be fried chicken when they seen the smoke coming from the front tire.
We left Provo Utah this am and headed for St George. We were about a 100 miles from St George when the brake buddy in the jeep we tow, mal functioned for a second time and this time it blew the tire. The only thing we can determine is the bake buddy for some reason engages it self if we hit a bump and presses the brake in. One other day it happened and we discovered it at a rest stop we just happened to stop at. It didn't cause any damage the first time. We had driven over rough construction both times it happened. Well needless to say it the law in many states that you have to have one of these it is designed to stop the vehicle you are towing if it breaks away from the motor home. Well we won't be using for the rest of the trip as we are not going to go through what we did today. It totally destroyed the tire and thank the Lord we were at a exit when it happened so had a good place to change a tire. The tire place we went to can not get us a replacement tire tell Thursday.

But I wish I would have taken a picture of us sitting along the side of the road changing the tire because "WE REALLY LOOKED GOOD" and some of you know how important that was to Jerry when we were shopping for motor homes how we would look if we were sitting on the side of the road.

We are at a real nice camp site and plan a trip to Mount Zion tomorrow. We are going to stay here for 3 to 4 days it is so pretty around here and a lot to see.

Will be reporting on our trip to Zion tomorrow. Bye from Barb and all.
