HummBeBe, your the best!

Here I am sitting with my wife in a hotel room waiting to hear the verdict on my truck from the local dealer here in Reno, NV. My wife has a very bad back and has a pain implant in her back. It is a rechargeable unit but we left the recharger in HummBeBe's garage.

As most know, we are in the fifth week of our cross country trip. As a result, we had a lot of excess baggage HummBebe let us keep it in her garage while we were on the Rubicon. Unfortunately, the charger was left behind when I picked it all up. Did not discover this until we arrived yesterday in Sparks, NV. Originally, she would meet us in Truckee, CA, about the half way point. Could I ask for anything better. Then the dealer calls.

The Fabtech tie rod is worn out! WTF! Being replaced with a stock tie rod. Seems the truck is in 4Wheel Hi Locked. Appears to be electrical but ran out of time, will troubleshoot tomorrow. Tomorrow! How do I tell BeBe that I can't even meet half way.

I call her and tell her What's happening, without hesitation she says "So I'll just drive to you." As if I was around the corner and down the block. It's TWO HOURS AWAY! Each way!

She showed up at the hotel, we went to dinner and had a nice discussion. She drove us back to the hotel and if I had asked, I am sure she would have walked us in.

Lift one for HummBebe. And a great driver.
