Murphy’s Law

Over the holidays, John and I were pulling our boat down the interstate. Then, boom! A tire blew out on the boat trailer. We drove about half a football field before there was enough room off the shoulder to safely pull over. 

Believe it or not, this is the second time this has happened to us. We had a spare trailer tire, a jack and all the tools to change the tire in the bed of the truck. Within 20 minutes, we were back on the road.
