Jan, the pray-er is working over-time for you guys to have a safe and trouble-free remainder of your journey!!! Yikes is right; I can't imagine the "$urprise" of having to do 5 tires!! Thank the Lord He was looking out for you and had those guys keep the tire place open for you!!
Did you by chance get a pic of the wildflower bouquet that your granddaughter picked for you? ;)

We finally did end up getting rain down here - about 45 minutes' worth of a nice steady gentle rain. Nice. I'd headed out to take some pics and only realized after I got out there that it had started... figures. ;P Oh well, took some pics anyway!

1- A pretty rain-covered bloom from Mini Pearl DL.
2- Black-Eyed Susan DL close-up.
3- Every one of my Hostas out back is blooming profusely. The big Blue Angel was a gift from Gita year before last, at Sally's plant swap. Every time I see her I say a prayer of thanks for you G.!
4- Please forgive the ugly surroundings, but the Echinacea in the driveway-side bed are really taking off like gang busters this year!
5- Last but not least, one of the Coleus out back. I do love this colour!!
