Mr. Bad Luck
What a fun Labor Day - except for Mr. Bad Luck and his unwelcome appearance! Our plans for today included Daniel and Kristin meeting us to go to the lake and wakeboard. We had plans to meet Meemaw for breakfast and leave the kids with her. As we got in the truck and started down the road with the boat, the truck started to sputter and act crazy. Jonathan turned around, certain something major had gone wrong with the truck. I, on the other hand, knowing that we can't get nearly as good of gas mileage pulling the boat as without it, was certain the truck was out of gas. Jonathan unloaded the boat, put a gallon or so of gas from the garage in the truck and proceeded to the gas station to fill it up. 32.5 gallons later in a 32 gallon tank and we're on our way. - Mr. Bad Luck visit no. 1. So we're finally on the way to the lake with Daniel and Kristin when Mr. State Trooper turns around to pull us over. No tags on the boat trailer, so here's a ticket for your labor day. Mr. Bad Luck visit no. 2. At the dock, we unload the boat and head out for a fun day wakeboarding. We have a lot of fun with no issues. Once we stop for lunch on the lake, turn the boat off and sit for a while, then start back up, the boat starts to overheat. Mr. Bad Luck visit no. 3. No worries, we just needed to open the motor cover while we sat. Ok, so we made it through the day with Mr. Bad Luck giving us a little heartache and a whole bunch of laughs. Now we're just wondering when will Mr. Bad Luck go away.
