Since that wild and crazy Bob saw fit to have people ask me about Percy's driveway, here's the whole hilarious saga. Towing my boat, I intended to take her down Percy's driveway, then drive across our lawns to my own, much as the UPS guy does. My turn was too sharp, and the trailer wheel went into a shallow ditch, causing the trailer frame to rest on the road. I couldn't move it myself and had to have the whole rig towed backward five feet. The boat and driveway are fine.
I'll pause before the punchline so that you might gather your breath. Ready?
It was raining.
Here's a kleenex.
