A van update, complete with amazing text-o-art

By request, an update on the van (before we tackle I-10, 65, 71, and 75 on Saturday):

The tire was still flat a day later, so we decided the best thing would be to put in the spare, provided it was not one of the little tiny ones that come with most cars. After checking it out, the spare was the exact same as the regular tire, so we went ahead with the procedure. Text-o-art!

After about an hour in the dark dealing with jacks, lug nuts, and car snot (i.e. grease), we can report that the tire has been changed and all has been going swimmingly since the procedure on Tuesday night. At least as far as the tire is concerned.

Now if only we could do something about the growing (2-inches per day) crack at the top of the windsheild...
