I was with Ashley and Emily on our way to REI when we were discussing Megan’s hubcap sightings. Ashley then spotted one up the side of the road a bit and Chelsea U-turned twice to align the car to get it. Blinker on and Ashley ran about 6 feet up the hill in her heels to grab the hubcap! Success. Ashley’s first rescue.

Driving on with excitement of the first find, we see a lonely smashed hubcap in a lane on the opposite side of the road- almost impossible to get right now. We keep diving. Emily spots one on her side,
Chelsea turns down the next street that parallels the road with the spotted cap. Emily climbs out of the car and up a hill to look for the cap. She walks several yards before spotting it. Emily then breaks into a run, picks up the cap and looks longingly down the road where the smashed cap was, thinking about attempting to get it. She decides against it and bounds down the hill toward the car. Second success! Then back in route to REI within seconds we see two more un-attemptable hubcaps. These little guys will have to be rescued some late night or be swept up by the trash man.
