Even after running the wheels all summer or because of running them all summer the lug bolt wiggled its way out?

Yikes! 2?? I do have another lug bolt and will be visiting the local tire place Tuesday, just a bit PO'd that now I have a bolt cover MIA.well at least nobody was chasing me down the hi-way screaming at me that the lug bolt flew into their windshield and busted it or anything
