This is my post for #freewriters 2672 prompt no traction hosted by
This photo is of me and my Mom, it was taken 5 years after her and Dad moved to the Inlet. To get to the Inlet you had to either go by boat or you had to drive the 5 miles of sugar sand. Sugar sand is a fine sand, even though the road ran close to the beach, it was not beach sand.
Back then there was no way to call someone if you get your car stuck. The only way you were going to get help was to wait for another car to come by or get out and walk.
.The trick to navigating a soft sand road is to let some of the air out of your tires. If you try to drive this road without taking the air out, there will be no traction only sinking into the sand.
I am not in the mood for writing, so that is it.
