Sandwich (Famous Last Words)

This Is Tom writing:
This morning before I left for work Jessica asked me if I wanted a sandwich because I was going to be out working in the county today. I said no I should be back in time to come home for lunch this afternoon.
The vehicle I use at work is a 2010 Ford F-150. We had a auxiliary battery added as well as an isolator and a power inverter hardwired to the 2nd battery so that I could have a mobile office. Well something went wrong with the electrical system when I was out today, and the vehicle couldn't keep itself running for whatever reason (most likely a failure with the isolator) At this point I was on my way back to Rawlins so I did accomplish what I went out to do this morning.
So out in the middle of nowhere without cell phone/wireless service I locked the truck and started walking down the road......
I was able to hitch a ride to the town of Hanna where a coworker was able to pick me up but I have to tell you I really wished I had taken that sandwich.
