On Wednesday, July 27 we were scheduled to get our fresh water tank replaced at the RV repair shop. However, the tank was not in. As we prepared to leave, Herb noticed something wrong with one side of the trailer. One of the spring shackles had broken. We tried to work on it for some time on our own (the picture above shows Herb underneath trying to break the shackles loose) but since we were lacking heavier equipment we finally asked the RV shop to make the repair. They ended up replacing all of the shackles. It was a repair and an expense that we hadn’t anticipated but if we hadn’t discovered the broken shackles there it could have caused serious damage later on or we would have broken down somewhere along the road. God’s plans changed our plans but we are thankful for HIS provision and protection.
