Thank God for Checotah

Driving between McAlester and Muskogee in a driving rain, I heard a pop, then the mobile dental van started to slow. I'm all, what the heck is going on. I was already past all of the Eufaula exits. Checotah was next, but still a painful 9 mile drive on the shoulder with flashers warning away speeding semi-trucks. So far I haven't been able to find a wrecker service able to tow this thing, so I checked into America's Best Value Inn at the truck stop and I'm waiting for daylight. I'll let you know if it is...you know...America's Best. For now I'm thankful the winnebago made it to a truck stop, and that the truck stop had a hotel nearby.
