OOPS


OK SO.......WE PARKED FOR THE NIGHT AT A TRUCK STOP.  AS I WAS BACKING OUT I HEARD A SCRAPPING NOISE.  YOU MIGHT KNOW THE NOISE; WHEN YOU PARK OVER A CURB AND BACK OUT AND IT SCRAPES NO BIG DEAL.  WELL WE FOUND OUT IN A SEMI IT IS A BIG DEAL, STOP AND LOOK!  WELL WE DIDN'T STOP AND LOOK, AS WE WERE ENTERING THE ON RAMP WE COULD HEAR LOUD SCRAPPING, THEN WE HEARD SOMETHING FALL OFF, THEN WE HEARD THE TIRES RUN OVER SOMETHING.   WHEN I COULD I PULLED OVER.  RANDY RAN BACK (IN THE DARK) AND RETRIEVED OUR FRONT BUMPER, LICENSE PLATE AND ALL.  OOPS.  WE STOPPED AT A REST AREA AND RANDY DID HIS MCGYVER THING AND FIXED THE BUMPER BY DRILLING HOLES IN IT AND ZIP-TYING IT ON. YOU CAN SEE THE ZIP TIES BY HIS HAND.  THANK GOODNESS FOR ZIP TIES AND DUCT TAPE.
