I wasn't even thinking about driving travel disasters. Thankfully, we didn't get stranded, but we did get lost on desert forest service roads for over 12 hours, while trying to find a shortcut.

Undisciplined

It wasnt even special. 
The alternator belt broke, and l didnt have a spare. 
Ended up going to a shop 2 hours away and getting any belt that fit. 
After l got moving, l got the right belt on it.
