Yesterday (friday) was beautiful so I took my 4 year old out fishing along the mullica. Unfortunetely we came across a guy who totally buried his pick up in a mud hole on that road that goes out to wescoat bogs from 206. His friend was there with an expedition, but couldn't get him out with the tow strap. The pick up was sitting on it's axles and the front hood was underwater, he couldn't start it.
Well, normally I would have got him out quicker, but I had to entertain my son at the same time and keep him at a safe distance. It was a difficult 2 1/2 hours trying to do both jobs. One moment I was hooking up chain and the next I was building sand castles at the edge of the mud hole. Eventually my never fails 3 ton engine hoist and chain got him out and he got his truck started.
The guys were all right. they weren't out wheeling or anything. They were out fishing and just got stuck.
On the bright side, Jack was real good about it all things considered and I caught a 20" pickerel (a real girthy one) on the mullica shortly after. Sorry no pics.
