Subject: Resourcefulness at its Best

 …and as usual, she found a way to save them.  The bus had broken down, the others had already started the trip to the nearest town clinging to the tops of passing cars and trucks and while not chaotic, the scene was reminiscent of a lost caravan slowly fading into the waves of heat rising in the very hot distance.  But then lo, and even behold, she found the solution and called her increasingly tired and crabby husband to her side and whispered in his ear, “Look at what I found.”   And he stared in disbelief at her find and she lovingly asked her husband to help her on, and then she handed him the rope as he stood so totally impressed, and then she bid it rise and then smiling asked her husband to start leading them to the nearest town, and so off they tread, him not quite sure of how this all came about, she reassuring him all things would work out just fine if he would just hurry along so they could get to the nearest town in time to watch the international rerun of Dancing with the Stars.
