Not State Farm, but such a good neighbor

Gonna give ya the short version.  The great idea was to go to Thacher Park and overlook the cliffs as the storms came rolling through.  During the breaks in the rain, the kiddos could ride their bikes all over the place. We got out of the truck at the overlook with HUGE black clouds rollin in. Lightning, rainbows, rain over Albany, sun on us...and one flat tire.
We punctured it in the parking lot. We left the spare at home when using the truck bed for something and never put it back. oops. So. now what? It was time to call someone for help. We called our dear neighbors and thankfully he was home. Not only that, he is a stock car racer and has changed more tires than anyone I know. This is important, because there were several things going awry with the changing of our tires on the 1997 pickup ;) I will spare the details.  Our neighbor got into our house, got the tire, drove to Thacher Park and in the now pouring rain, helped changed the tire..it would have taken two dudes to do it no matter what.
It rained on us, there was sunshine on either side of us, but we had to have seen the most brilliant rainbow. The camera didn't do it justice. So, we watched the storm roll in and were in awe. Side note: our neighbor wasn't even supposed to be home last night. At the last minute decided to come home and get some stuff when we called (haha - probably so glad he answered the phone!)
