December 27

Got more snow during the night.  It's cold here!  The hose to the travel trailer froze, hope it didn't break any internal water lines!  Charles discovered his tire was low and they filled it up yesterday.  It was low again this am and Charles found a nail in the tire!  No one open on Sunday to fix it, so we went to the drug and the dollar stores to see if they had any patch kits.  No one did but they did find some stuff to squirt in the tire to keep it full.  They changed to the spare and we followed them to Andy's house.  When they went to leave there, Andy noticed the spare was low, so he got his tire guage to fill it.  Just touching that to the filler tube made that leak and then they noticed cracks in the spare, so Andy fixed the tire with the nail in it by putting a plug in it.  Slowed their departure down a bit, but they got about around 3ish.  We stayed so John could help Andy work on his car.  They were able to get the belts installed the got it back together.  On the way home we saw a bunch of deer close to the road, glad it wasn't dark yet and that they didn't jump into the road in front of us!  Natalie Mann brought us some cookies this evening and visited for a while.  Tired!


The guys found that a tire they thought was just low had a nail in it!  We went looking for a repair kit to fix it, but no one was open that had one (Sunday)  Charles found a can of stuff you spray in the tire that's supposed to help keep it full.  They decided to put the spare on it, which wasn't in very good shape.  We ate lunch here (tamales) then followed Charles to Andy's house to visit.   Good thing Andy happened to notice that the spare was low so he was going to fill it up.  The valve was leaking and Andy thought the tire would have a blow out on the way home, so he put a plug in the tire with the nail.  I worried about them, but they made it home okay!  Josh came to their house for Christmas and they ended up having a fight with him and told him to leave.  He has such anger issues!  He spent the night at one of Susan's friends house and offended one of her daughters, so she told him he had to leave.  Susan says he is on drugs all the time now and couldn't get a job if they did a drug test.  Not much future for him, sad.  Michael spent Christmas in a homeless shelter.  He was supposed to stay with one on Hailey's step moms, but she said she doesn't know him and didn't want him there.  Looks like Hailey doesn't want him around.  Susan said he got a job so they are going to let him stay in the shelter for, I think it was 4 months. 

John helped Andy put his car back together after Charles and family left, they got er done!  It was almost dark when we left.  We saw a herd of deer right next to the road!  Glad it wasn't dark yet and glad they didn't jump out in front of us!  Made it home safely, it's cold out!  We left the heat on in the travel trailer, the water line froze up yesterday and there is a plug of ice in the trailer so we can't blow it out until it thaws!
