Thanks for passing that along to me, Haley. I agree, someone must have been looking out for you. Some refer to that as the "burnt toast theory" - look it up. In any case, I'm glad your safe. And moving forward, I'm sure you'll have much better luck with tires :)

About 50 years ago I was a teenager with my first drivers license. My parents trusted me with letting me take the car out on Friday and Saturday nights to see friends. I lived in a rural area with a lot of mountain back roads created for the logging trucks to get into the deep woods. One day I had a friend with me traveling behind a logging truck with a full load of logs sticking out from the back. They are supposed to tack a red cloth to the end of the longest log which is crucial to the safety of cars directly behind them. This one truck I was following did not have a red cloth and when it came to a stop I didn't notice that one log was sticking out quite a bit longer than all the others. It all blends together. …Without a doubt… I believe my guardian angel picked up my right leg from the gas pedal and put it on the brake pedal. I realized what happened immediately so I pressed down the brake pedal to stop. I was in amazement when I saw one skinny log not more than one inch from the windshield directly infront of my friends face! She surely would have been decapitated if I hadn't stopped. So much gratitude for my angels and guides. 😇👣
