Road trips can be amazingly fun and interesting, while some of them can turn into down right sagas akeen to Ulysses' odyssey trying to return to his dear Penelope. In 2003, we had a great adventure marred only by a series of problems with the tires on the trailer we were towing. Since the tires were under-inflated we blew all the spares we carried with us and we were lucky to happen upon a co-op in Wyoming that sold us the one and only tire that would fit the trailer for ten dollars. Michael was very pragmatic and calm every time he had to go out and change the tire. He was surprised I was so unflustered. I figured that crying, screaming or swearing would not magically fix the tire so why give my self a headache on top of the situation. The kids were really good and Michael was able to change the tires rather efficiently. Our positive attitude allowed us to enjoy our trip inspite of the flat tires.
