We recently got to go to Texas and visit the children. It was a nice visit too short for me , but then it always is. We had a good time visiting the Dallas -Fort Worth stockyards,riding through the country,shopping and just being lazy.
It is so nice of them to have us I know they are very busy with work and Miranda has college classes she is trying to finish . We appreciate the time they take for us.
On the day we were to leave bright and early around four A.M. we awoke to a flat tire on the car.I told Gary let's go back to bed and wait till things open so we can get it fixed. Being a man on a mission he wasn't about to do that. I heard him out in the garage and checked to see what was going on he was looking for an air tank or compressor. I am thinking surely he isn't going to air that tire up and ride on it. That didn't happen because David didn't have a tire chuck thank goodness.
By this time Miranda has gotten up David had only been in bed a couple of hours since he had to stay up working late on a couple of last minute projects. I am thinking the whole neighbor hood will be awake. Gary proceeds by changing the tire to the spare donut tire. I am wondering okay how safe is this he assures me it will be fine till we can get it fixed. While we are doing this I look up and some one goes jogging by down the street so maybe we aren't awaking everyone after all.
We left and made it safe to Marshall ,Texas by eight A.M. exit off find a Toyota dealer ship and get the tire fixed. We proceed on the trip and arrive at home around ten thirty that night so needless to say I was tired.
In closing it was worth the ride to spend time with them I just hope they feel the same.
