On April 27, 2016 we set off on our new life-style. We made it nearly all the way to the Georgia border when we were ambushed by a blow-out that took off our right wheel fender.
Within an hour, our Good-Sam's membership came through, A road-side assistant arrived and had us back on the road in no time. We decided to camp at the closest Camping World campground in Lake Park, Georgia and purchase 4 new tires. However, our streak of ill-fare was not over yet. While gathering wood for a campfire Mason stepped on a pile of wood and drove a nail nearly an inch through his shoe and 1/2" into his foot. Thank God for adequate nerve endings; he was able to withdraw his foot before it went much further. The following morning we located a clinic to have a tetanus booster, and were back on the road with 4 new tires, a bandaged foot and one very concerned sister.
