Broke Down in Fort Collins

We were just about to cross into Wyoming on highway 287 when the turbo unit started making some odd rubbing/whistling noises. One last hill and it's all down hill from here I thought, common bus you can do it!  Then "Poof," that was the noise it made, and all the whining whistling and rubbing ceased as the bus lost all power and we coasted to a stop on the side of the highway. Oh well I thought, I wonder if there's a new Hells Kitchen out or a Big brother. Then Michelle and I turned on the generator, put out the Triangle emergency highway markers, put a call into GoodSam's roadside assistance and watched some TV as we waited for help to arrive.
