One day while Boots was driving back to Aransas Pass from Rockport, she was third in a ‘clump’ of 4 vehicles. The vehicles were clumped because the front driver was a ‘looky-loo’ (or maybe just a lost tourist) who speeded up and slowed down at the most annoying times. As one of the drivers hoping for chance to pass, Boots noticed the car in front of her suddenly swerved to miss a life jacket on the highway. Boots figured she’d have no trouble clearing the thing so, rather than swerve, she straddled it and drove on. Later, back at the RV Park, she was putting the groceries away when Carole (RV Park owner) noticed something under the truck – the life jacket! Apparently because of the truck behind her, Boots didn’t see that the truck indeed had not cleared it and had completely forgotten about it.
So now, everyone is looking for the body and being a little more respectful around Boots in the RV park.
