A Point of Grace concert was a delightful way to end a fun day at the Iowa State Fair. My sister Connie and I, along with our ten-year-old daughters, made the three-hour trip early that morning so we could enjoy a full day of attractions, rides, fried food and gazing at the famous cow sculpture made of butter.

The hot, sunny weather, typical for Iowa in August, made our day even better. We left the fair tired but content at about eleven that night. It was sprinkling when we left and soon rain fell steadily. Heavy rains developed into a thunderstorm shortly after we began our trip home, yet our mood remained light as we belted out tunes from the concert and listened to the girls’ excited chatter in the backseat of the van.

“What are we going to do?” I watched the rain pelt the windshield. “Do you know how to fix a flat?”

The van quivered as an eighteen-wheeler whizzed by, a reminder that we were a few feet from Interstate 80.
