Wobble, Wobble, POP!

On Sunday after church I went to see my friends Loraine & Jim. I had a great time visiting and Jim made some super yummy food. We had beef enchiladas and he made a chicken 'n dumpling stew. I have never liked dumplings that much but his were flavorful and not all gooey. The stew was tasty too!

Then I headed to Carson for a musical fireside. I'm driving up the 405 in the fast lane when I notice that my car is wobbling a bit and is a little hard to control. At first I thought it was wind. I look around and no trees are blowing. I slow a bit and move over one lane (out of the fast lane so I can go the speed limit). Then I hear a noise getting louder. I turn off the radio so I can listen. The sound is getting progressively louder... I decide to get off on Lakewood (next exit and familiar ground). Once I get to the right lane my tire gives out and it was a rough ride till I got to the shoulder. I park, pull out my AAA card, call and wait. Everything turned out fine and I made it to the fireside late. It was still worth it though. Great music, great talent, and a great message. I was extra grateful because I arrived (relatively) safely.

This is what was left of my tire:

There's a nail in the middle of it somewhere...
