Wait. Are those Collin’s people?!

Maybe the biggest insult to all of this is we decided to grab a couple sandwiches before leaving Provo while we had options. Jersey Mike’s was the most convenient. And I’m now being reminded how unexciting a Jersey Mike’s sandwich is. Hint of doodle in the very back.

then in, a day or two when the tire is repaired, return the Turo to Provo and drive the Tesla back to Vegas. We had been on track to be home by 7:30. It’s now 8:30 and we’re just driving past the spot where I got the call from my wife. Projected Vegas arrival: 12:21 am.

Provo airport. So the question is, can we get enough gear from a week in the woods plus a week of lacrosse camp gear into the Tesla to free up enough space for a family of six with 9 foot tall genes and a doodle into a five seater. And if so, drive to Provo, grab the Turo rental, drive to Vegas,

doesn’t put spare tires in his vehicles because reasons. No jack, nothing. I finally get behind them and catch up on the details. My wife has been busy and more successful than I. No surprise there. Tesla was sending a flat bed from Pleasant Grove. She has secured a Yukon on Turo out of the

Take the next exit, turn around and drive the luckily only 20 miles back to where they were stranded making desperate calls along the way to THE tire store in Beaver to see if they had any options in the small chance we can get it there. A reminder for the less initiated, Elmo (king of efficiency)

Finally meet up with other crew for a minute in Nephi as they grabbed lunch while the car charged. Gave our high fives and jumped out ahead of them. Halfway between living out the Fillmore Beaver joke, my wife calls. On the side of I-15 a couple miles south of Fillmore with a flat tire. FUUUUUCK.

plus all of the charging. They pull into Salt Lake safely at about 12:30 am. My 16 year old son and I closed down the cabin and were on the road by 7:45 this morning to catch up with the other crew. Got to Salt Lake and straight to the in-laws to pick up the dog who spent the week with grandma.

Since I know that you guys love my stories, especially when they involve Elmo’s shitty cars. I’ve been at a family reunion for the last week in Island Park, Idaho a bit outside West Yellowstone. My wife and three of the kids left last night in her Tesla to split up the 11.5 hour drive

This was on my paper route when I was 12. Long live the Sugarhouse Gang.

Mom: Why don’t we have a family reunion every year?

Five days into family reunion-

Sister 2: Why are you leaving early?

Sister 3: Because I have to get home to handle a bunch of divorce stuff.

Sister 2 (dismissively): You have a house. You’re fine.

So my wife obviously passed along this little tidbit to the Dr and he is freaking. Felt pressured to do a favor he didn’t want to do and now can’t decide if there’s more liability keeping this person on or getting rid of them. LOL. Can’t a guy just breast aug the rest of his life without the drama?!

He sued them for being responsible for a back injury he sustained while doing baptisms for the dead! And they settled! (I haven’t been in years, maybe this led to new revelation on how to do them without stressing your back.)

But they now need to spend their energy on a new person to get her up to speed so she can dilute their clientele even further. Well, yesterday my wife discovers that this new nurse’s husband is a personal injury attorney and sued the LDS church several years ago.

Several weeks ago, the surgeon my wife works for hired a new nurse as a favor to an old college friend. The nurse is his friend’s sister-in-law. Dr then told the nurse injectors (my wife) to train her how to do injections 😮. So now not only is business down because “Vegas is dead”

Eating breakfast at Penny Ann’s in Draper and noticed this guy eating his breakfast probably better than I’ve ever seen someone eat breakfast before. Guy across from him was wearing a Texas shirt. Maybe God is moving in a new direction.

Not exactly what you want to see when you’re headed to the airport.

Two of my boys are doing a lacrosse camp there this week, so I had to get them oriented. Flying home now, so I hope they figure it out.

Lots of good ways to spend a beautiful Sunday. I did not choose any of them.

Yeah. Only child from a previous marriage. Has five kids from second marriage. BIL lives in Utah while she grew up with her mom back east where she stayed for college and her PhD. Kind of the forgotten child/grandchild.

A YouTube video triggered something I had forgotten about that happened during this year’s Lake Powell trip. In a conversation with my brother-in-law, I had to remind him what his oldest child’s (a transgender female) name is. The most disappointing thing that happened on the trip.

The fact that I put the Portillo’s bat signal up 48 hours ago and it has yet to draw Collin out of the shadows just confirms my point.

Some are. Some are not.

Poured one out over the greatest group chat over the existence of group chats. RIP Yeddy Bearst.

Looking gorgeous!

Ran up to the closet and found some of that fresh new logo swag!

Meh. You’ll be fine. Unless you’re coming down to work on someone’s roof. Here’s where we were a year ago.

We will rebuild. And then look into what’s going on!

Water came up so fast poor Ted didn’t even have time to book a flight to Cancun!

My daughter just posted this to her Instagram and never has an unintentional mistake been so perfect.
