flat tire #2

I walked outside to get my jacket out of the car before Fragrance, and was like "oooh nooo"

looking to see the damage...

Ethan and Matthieus were on it! Took almost 3 hours lol but they got 'er done!

Thankfully none of us had to work today, so we got up and around and went out to work at changing  the tire and finding the leak. Ethan and I worked at that, and never did find the hole... I told him it went flat just so that he would stay for the worship night at Fragrance. haha wouldn't that be humorous.
