The Tow by Lizz Schumer

Recall the prehistoric days of 2004, traveling with a high schooler on her family vacation as they explore the American West. Their journey is fraught with strange weather, family dynamics, and lots of red rocks. The author goes on their own personal journey as the literal distance of summer trips becomes emotional distance between friends. Due to scheduling conflicts, this episode includes a story narration only.
