Wrong turn...

^^^^^ nice, "greenhorn~!" LoL. . .

 

YOU'RE SOOOO NOT ALONE. Unfortunately, this is a topic that I have a great deal to share. First, thank GOD hubby was my team driver and even more gratitude that he's a really capable driver. It was him, that got us out of my oops-es!

Opps, #1 -- Delaware Water Gap Debacle -- Leaving truck stop and listened to GPS to make a right when it should have been left. Took me to the end of the highway and I had to take the exit. At the end of the exit ramp, I had two options (well, three ... the third being to wake hubby). First, was to make a 180 degree left turn around a small median and try to get straightened out enough to pass under a 100+ year old stone bridge overpass OR ... continue straight through a SINGLE BLINKING RED LIGHT to continue on a ONE LANE pass through the Delaware Water Gap gorge! I choose options 3 (wake hubs) and 2 (continue straight). We then navigated for the next hour and a half through a single lane, hairpin turned, muddy pass through. We prayed that the "road" would hold us (we were loaded) and that I could make it up and down the hills and through the turns. Of course, that the single red blinking light was there to let only one car (not 18 wheeler, mind you) pass through the gorge at a time. We took so long that we encountered cars going through the opposite way. "God ... please let them have room to pass us!!" and there was. We made it through the gorge and into a small residential area and thought we were on our way only to find out that we were half way through and looked straight ahead at a hill we never thought we could make. Holy crap! (BTW, this was the first day we were driving as a team after completing training with our respective trainers.) I was close to the end of my rope but got through the second half and brought us out to the smallest, quaintest, cobblestoned round-a-bout which I barely made around. I'm ready for an institution at this point and hubs clean drawers. (LOL) We needed to pull over and see where the ef we are and how to get back on an interstate. We pulled over, looked at each other, slumped back in our seats and, in unison, exhaled. Then, looking up, we see an arrow pointing to I-80 and we were outta there!!!! This was Day One..... (more - much more - to follow)

 

I left a stop sign at a near perfect 45 in Florida a few months back.... It didn't fall down; so I don't feel like I broke it... Just lent it some 'personality'. Lol.

 

I almost took out a hot redhead in a convertible today. But she slapped me and said, "Not in THIS lifetime!"

 

No one in Florida uses stop signs anyway......

 

Okay, now my daughter isn't grounded, after all; LoL~!!! (she's only 16 Lep... so ya better behave! And yes, she has a red convertible and a 3 week new license, LoL.)
