We made it home in one piece from sunny Florida. Had a couple close calls on the road.
Caught a rock thrown by a hiway mower south of Hattiesburg on the way down. It busted the windshield and sprayed glass chips all over the inside of Mrs. Augie’s RAV4. Sounded like a bomb went off in the car when it hit us. Tried to schedule SafeLite to replace it while we were in Pensacola, but they sent the guy to Panama City. Then once they got it straight where we were they sent the wrong windshield. By that time it was too late to get it done before we had to head back. Local glass shop went to Mrs. Augie’s workplace this morning with the right part and installed it in the parking lot.
Successfully dodged a loose trailer wheel that came from the opposite side of the interstate going through Wentzville on the way home. The guy two cars in front of us ate it in his grille, then it went under his car and flew out the back side. I was paying attention and saw it fly over the jersey barrier so was able to avoid the tire and all of the other vehicles who were shucking and jiving trying to miss all of the shredded parts that came off the car that hit it.
Vacation was great, but it’s nice to be home. Going back to work on Thursday so I can get some rest.
The garden is pretty much kaput at this point. Okra is still going nuts, but the tomatoes are shot.
I uploaded pond work photos to tinypic this morning. I’ll post those on the next thread.
Glad you made it safely home. Look forward to your pics @ next post.
