So, he's not a mechanic . . .

 I was just thinking yesterday about a trip we took last year during Labor Day weekend. We went to Kewanee for Hog Days (a large festival celebrating Kewanee's claim to be the "Hog Capital of the World") and started having car problems. We finally got the car moving again and made it out of Kewanee, but then became stranded when stopping at a gas station in Monmouth. It was pretty frustrating and Rick and I were about to the end of our patience as we sat waiting for help. Cue Skyler. He started offering "helpful" suggestions. The best, and most persistent, was: "Maybe it needs gas! Daddy, maybe the car just needs gas!" Well, this became a moment to laugh at, and it still makes us laugh today. (By the way, it wasn't the gas that was the problem.)
