Sunk Up to the Tailpipe

The next morning the tide had receded and the truck had survived unscathed. The light of day had brought a measure of sanity back to the thought process. The first thing I did was look for the spot where I'd buried my weed. It was surprisingly easy to find. The first place I tried digging, I found it.
Next, I took another look at the truck half way out of the arroyo, the back end sunk up to the tail pipe in dirt. Eureka! It came to me to use the jack. We jacked her up and pushed her back into the arroyo.
One end of the arroyo opened out onto a dirt road with barbed wire running along it. We followed this road and it came out onto the highway. We were saved!
