My wife has a saying that God looks out for fools and drunks. At times, I've been both. Well, I wasn't drunk but He was still looking out for me today.
While heading home from a camping trip, pulling our trailer the thermostat stopped working and overheated the rig. Amazingly, it happened right next to a parts store and they had all we needed.
It gets better. Earlier in the trip, I pulled over to check something on the trailer. My wife spotted some black tubing on the ground. Turned out to be fuel line. She threw it in the rig because she hates litter and it was in brand new condition.
Flash forward, the thermostat is replaced, we're back on the road and the rig starts starving for gas. I loop back, get some filters and go to changing filters. Turns out the fuel lines were old and cracked.
You guessed it. The fuel line my wife picked up off the ground miles back was exactly the right diameter and, after replacing all the line under the hood, I was left with about 3" left over.
I'll be singing a little louder in church tomorrow.
