Isn’t That Malcolm?
As I said in the last entry, Malcolm left for South Carolina before Mark, me, and company. It was very late at night when we caught up with Malcolm on the road. He was easy to spot because of the trailer he was pulling. We tried to drive along side him or right behind him, but he was going way too fast.
Malcolm blew passed us and we trailed behind. Then, way up ahead I saw their trailer swaying back and forth. I knew something was wrong. He pulled over on the side of the road. We passed them and then pulled over too.
We called him on his cell. He had hit a bump on the road and one of the tires on the trailer ripped open. He needed a new tire and didn’t have a spare.
There was a cop helping him. But we would have to go to the nearest Wal-Mart and get him a new tire. He told us the type of tire to get. We typed Wal-Mart into our TomTom and went shopping around midnight.
We got him 2 tires, just in case. When we returned to where Malcolm was, we parked behind him to shine our headlights on the trailer. He changed the tire, but needed to adjust the contents of the trailer to even out the weight on the tires. We all then went to Wal-Mart.
Should we offer them some chips? Nah, they look busy.
Malcolm and Mark unpacked, then repacked. Vonia, Malcolm’s wife and my sister-in-law, and I got some snacks at Wal-mart. Then, we all sat around the van and chatted… while Malcolm and Mark worked. We did offer them some of our snacks.
Enjoying Nature
Needless to say, we got to the camp very late. We put the tents up in time to sleep during a few sunless hours. The next day we didn’t leave the campsite. It was just a day to relax and recuperate from the last night’s adventure.
