RV THERE YET 4

So we had a smoking truck situation today that landed us on the side of I-15 in the tiny section of Arizona about 10 miles from the nearest exit, which was in Nevada.

A very kind man stopped with an empty mini van who happened to be heading to Mesquite, NV to visit friends from his mission. He usually has his five kids and wife with him, but they luckily chose to stay up in Cedar City for the day. So Sarah, Patrick and Maddie headed to McDonald’s to wait for word while poor Angus stayed with the truck & trailer in 106 degree heat with no shade while he waited for the tow truck.

Unfortunately, with the uptick in travel this summer it took hours to get a tow and by then the service station was closed for the day. So off we went to the nearest hotel which was super close to the dealership. Phew!

A huge thanks goes to our new friend Benji who rescued us from the highway and then by some grace was heading back north that afternoon so not only drove the three of us to Mesquite to get out of the sun and wait at McDonald’s, but then turned around and drove us back north 40 minutes to St.George, UT where there, fortunately, is a Chevy dealership. We are thankful for these miracles, exceptional human beings in this world willing to help strangers and for everyone being safe and sound tonight.Leggi altro
