Day 102: What a day!!!

Was suppose to be a nice Sunday in Bellaire, spending time with the In-Law's and doing our Easter with them. But nope, it turned in to a headache. We got to Mancelona and we crossed the rail road tracks, and then the truck started to make this rubbing noise, and it was shaking really bad, and you could feel a pull, left to right. We thought we had a flat tire, and were able to pull over. As we were pulling over the lady in the car behind us went past us, and was staring and pointing repeatedly at our truck. Well no shit, Sherlock!!! Way to be Captain Obvious, and yeah, thanks for pulling over, and say WHY you were pointing!!! We were 10 minutes away from my In-Laws, so they came and got us. Frank waited 45 minutes at the church we pulled over in, to wait for the Tow truck, the tie rod went out. The kids & I spent a few hours at Grandma & Grandpa's, and they were kind, and brought us all back home. It took 2 cars to get us home. LOL One of the disadvantages of having a big family. Kwintyn also got to ride forward facing for the first time because we couldn't get the car seat to fit like we wanted, so we just FF him, and their car was a little easier to FF in. He seemed to like it. He fells asleep on the way home. Hopefully he will still want to rear face in my truck when we get it back. I'm just so thankful that it wasn't something more expensive to fix, and I am so blessed that this did not end in an accident. After knowing what a tie rod does, I am so glad things didn't go worse.
