The good:
Jake won his first bout in the state tournament, which means he can place no lower than fourth. If he wins the next one, then he wrestles in the finals for first or second.
The bad:
My car wasn't running well yesterday. We passed the gas station where I'd last filled up to discover that they had the gas tanks barricaded because they were having to work on the -- apparently, there were lots of complaints of trash and water in the gas. Great. I have no idea how much trouble fixing that is going to be.
The ugly:
We drove our spare car to the tournament. On the way home on the interstate (at 70mph) it was making a very strange noise, as if something was dragging. Then a loud popping sound and we suddenly had no brakes. None. Luckily Carl coasted to a stop on the shoulder.
At least we had free towing.
