A Great Start!

We were headed up to beautiful McCall, ID with our boat in tow for a week long Family Reunion with Ty's family. We were 7 miles out of Snowville when one of our tires on the boat trailer burst. We pulled over. Ty had a spare tire but he didn't have the tool to get it off the trailer! Long story short, we waited 2 1/2 hours for a tow truck to come and help us get the spare off.

Ty felt like we should get new tires for the trailer just to be on the safe side. So we stopped off in Twin Falls and joined Costco and bought tires! They weren't allowed to change trailer tire so Ty changed them in the parking lot. 1 1/2 hours later we were on the road again!

The upside to this story is that we are now proud members of Costco!

It's also a great reminder that you should always be prepared for what ever may happen.
