Ooops!


What a night!!! So I had a genius idea last night to go for a drive, just because. Me and Justin jumped in the van and headed west to Brandon. About half way there, it started to rain, just like dad had told me before we left. I didn't think about it at all until we got out in Brandon and stepped out onto the road and onto a skating rink. We drove around Brandon for a while and stopped at Subway, then we got gas before we were headed home. While in the gas station, the attendant wished us good luck getting back into the city as the highways were closed. Well, we tried anyways, got as far as Sidney, where the police had the roads closed off after 3 semi's slid into the ditch. What a ridiculous night! We slept in the van for a while then headed to Portage La Prairie where we slept a couple hours and then headed home at 9 this morning. I guess it is a good thing to check the weather forecast once in a while.
