Milestones along the Way


The Clampetts head west--a new breed of pioneers. Looks dangerous, doesn't it. The only trouble we had was in Rapid City, SD. We had been thru the Badlands and Mt. Rushmore, and had just pulled into a hotel parking lot. I checked in and when I went back to the truck, Cindy said I needed to look at a trailer tire. When I touched the valve stem, it exploded and blew the inside right out--15 minutes off the interstate. Next morning I changed the tire, drove two blocks to a Wal-Mart tire center, had a new stem put in, and back on the road. To top it off, their computer wouldn't read my debit card, so they waved it off.

Beautiful! Clear sailing the rest of the way.
