Adventures with Haley

Haley spoke in sacrament meeting on Easter Sunday, 4/21/19. Her roommates from college all came to see her and we enjoyed seeing them again.

Adding Parents

Haley invited the mother of her High School friend to come to hear her.

Haley gave an excellent talk on the Resurrection. It had a moving effect on Kelly's mom, who lost a daughter because of a drug overdose.

During the week we have been getting Haley situated with insurance, financial accounts, replacement Social Security cards, contacts and eyeglasses, etc.

On Friday, Haley and I went on the same Catalina State Park hike John went on when he was here.

The next day I wanted to take Haley on an off-road 4WD excursion. We started the trip and all was fine. We aired down the tires to 25psi.

Airing Down

We started up the hill.

Water Bar Hill

All was going well so I let Haley drive.

All of a sudden we went over a water bar and BONK! We hit bottom on a simple water bar. Then I noticed the tire pressure display has the left front tire lit up. I asked Haley what the pressure said for the tire. She said "Zero! How could it be zero, we just checked and they were all 25!"

I told her to go down the hill to the little draw and stop so we can see what is going on. The tire was flat as could be.

Sliced sidewall

Disappointment

I thought that maybe the bead had popped off the rim and we could air it back up. We got about 20 psi in the tire with the power pump but it wouldn't take anymore. We then discovered a slit in the sidewall. It took us a while to change the tire because it was the first time I had used the tools. Haley tightened up the nuts so she could learn.

The shop has a new tire on order.
