OR a tow, God sent us Jeff--the 'tow-dude' from McKinney's. We were SO
happy to see Jeff!!! It ended up being a very fun day considering what
happening. We got our truck hooked up, but had to stop and pick up another
tow on the way!! However, we were just thankful to get off the side of the
road and get a ride home!! So, praise God for sending us Jeff--who hooked us
up (literally) with a deal!! Needless to say, we are SO sorry we had to
