    I got stuck once in La, delivering some Can Ams to a dealer. I thought I coulgo around the block through a neighborhood to turn around because the dealer was closed on the Monday I showed up.

    Ended up being 4ft deep ditches on both sides of the street and too tight to turn. Ended up backing into a parish pumping station because the guy opened the gate for me. I promptly got stuck in the wet soft grass so I dropped the trailer right there and left till the next morning. Some help from a guy with a pick up and one of my chains got me onto solid ground and out a different way so I could deliver. The dealship owner was real nice and said it happens more often than not lol.

    If it’s not an adventure, then it would just be trucking.

    I put my antipasto down to not drive into the 9 foot snow banks, and The OM promptly eats all the artichokes.
