Rain+Rain plus Dirt equals Mud ...


We got to try out our new AAA card today.

Matt drove approximately 100 feet from where he was working to our place. It is completely unpaved--just a few woodchips under the usual parking spot, a little grass, a few weeds, bare dirt areas, & a ditch. Stella, the sweetest of the 5 dogs that live here was suddenly in the path of the truck. Matt went slightly to the right. The front frame of the truck stuck onto the top of the berm. The back left tire sunk deep into sloppy mud.

Matt tried to get it out, but finally gave up & we called AAA. A very nice young man (Mr. Ruiz) & Matt worked for about an hour before finally getting it out by pulling it backward (from a distance) with chains.
