A crappy start to the week.

This Sunday I was driving back from my dad's house, and as I was heading over the point of the mountain my truck suddenly became very loud. I turned off the radio so I could listen better then I also started to lose power and immediately thought maybe my transmission was going out. That was until I looked in the rear view mirror and saw a big puff of white smoke! So as my truck died I pulled on to the shoulder of the freeway, and I noticed two bikers yelling at me to get away from the truck, apparently when I saw the white smoke they also saw a big flame from the bottom of my truck, immediately I got away from it and noticed there was still a small flame going so I stayed away. Luckily the flame went out on it's own and my truck didn't explode, so luckily I have the best grandpa in the world who is letting me borrow his car until I leave on my mission, so of course all my problems are fixed right? Wrong, unfortunately the front passenger side tire is flat and now I get to go find a new one. What a great start to the week!
