Delay


Wednesday, March 16: 1:05 PM: Heading out of town in the truck with our trailer and sand toys on our way to Kanab.

1:08 PM: Smoking truck. Pulled over at the base of the Point of the Mountain. Overheated. Broken fan blade that tore two holes in the radiator.

Approximately 2:00 PM: Being towed by the amazing Brian who dropped everything in the world he was doing to come rescue us. He and his super tough truck towed our truck AND trailer all in one go. I thanked him with No Bake Cookies I had in the trailer.

3:30 PM: Holey Radiator and the fan are off the truck.

5:00 PM: Been to 3 different parts stores all claiming to have the correct fan. None of them did. Been on the phone with a handful of others... having a hard time finding the right fan. Just picked up a new radiator.

5:45 PM: At the Dodge Dealership. Finally the right part! And, believe it or not it was about $20 bucks cheaper than what everyone else was quoting us.

7:15 PM: On the road again!!!

Thanks to my amazing husband who has the tools and skills to fix a problem that large so quickly!
