Eventful Drive






6
We attend Sacrament meeting only with Grandma. At 10:40 we start our drive down to Las Vegas, NV. We decide to stop at Camp Williams to visit Dad’s grave. We get a little lost trying to find it, but do eventually. We stop at Ryan’s to return a few things he left at Grandma’s house. But we can’t find his bag of things in our disorganized car. In Payson we hit a storm with rain so heavy Gordon has to slow down to 10 mph, visibility is really low , but only in Payson. After Payson there were crosswinds that made our windows whistle. Around Beaver Eve had an exploding diaper. Just then the traffic was forced to stop because of a forest fire. So I cleaned her up while we were parked on the highway. We waited for about an hour for permission to continue the trip. The man in the truck in front of us had a really kind dog named Princess that the girls played with. The drive is 9 hours. We chat at Amber’s house for a little while, then go to Mom’s house to sleep.

Hey, I got stuck in that same spot!! But we only got stuck for 45 minutes before they forced us off the freeway and out to the middle of nowhere :P

I remember getting stuck in traffic with you and Lily on the way to my parents one Easter. That was fun!

Yea, I think I've been stuck an abnormal amount. Maybe I'm bad luck.
