The family made it to Mississippi only to come to a complete stop. Already the kids don't like it for various reasons including, it's too hot, boring, too hot, and people half naked. To add to the misery, the family finds out why traffic is stopped after cars start turning around. They reach the pit of the problem. A big truck had flipped over, and is now engulfed in flames. Daniel recognized the driver and ask if that was the man that had helped them pack earlier that day. As Daniel was asking the question, his father put two and two together, that was their truck with their stuff burning.
I could not imagine going to a whole new state and then not having anything and having to start all over. Also his father didn't get home owners insurance while their stuff was being moved, so they have no coverage. When I read that, the devastation and shock the family was feeling came through me as well.
