On the way home Kieran and I had our final Big Adventure. Rolling down the road at exactly 70 mph, ka-splat-splat-splat, blown tire, shredded.
But what good luck! If you are going to shred a tire out in the middle of ‘nowhere’ it might as well be the ‘nowhere’ that is across the highway from a tire store. Really .. Right across the highway from a tire store, Verndale Tire near Verndale, MN!
A sweet woman in a pick-up truck took us over there, the guys at the store did the whole job – and including a well-used tire all for 50 bucks. We were back on the road in less than an hour.
