AMAZING pack job by scott.
the inside pack job. jenga. the suitcase is missing from the bottom. haha.
We had a VERY interesting roadtrip. It started off.......... ok. we were planning on leaving at 10. nope. didn't leave till like 12:30. so then we had to find a gas station... and scott picked the wrong side of the tank.... and then we went in to get drinks.. scott went to go to the bathroom and tried opening the wrong door. very funny. then as mark and i were walking out laughing at scott, mark fell down the stair and some awesome dude in his car laugh and was like OHHHHHH! haha. very funny. then scott went forward instead of backwards. haha. but it was a good thing cuz there was a car driving past so it woulda been an accident. alright. then we decide to go through wendys.... a HECKA long line. like holy crap it was long. then we switched and i drove on out. everything thing was going good. until we almost missed the exit. haha. and then a VERY quick stop so we almost got rear-ended. ok. then everything was going good again. but then it started getting super windy. and tumble weeds started flying past which was freaking because i didn't know how to dodge them. and the air got completely white. from the wind and salt. ew... so we got to grandmas!! and uncle david was there!!!! :) it was good. we left grandmas and scott took over. He too had the problem of dodging tumbleweed... but unfortunately, it was a very difficult thing. so he hit one... haha. and it got stuck in our bumper for like an hour! It was funny. then we stopped to get gas. and we got a broken one or something, so scott had to go in and get help to make the pump keep pumping gas. the man was nice. he laughed at our tumble weed. after we left there was this yellow thing in the road. scott couldn't decided whether or not to dodge it or not. he decided not to. and it got stuck under our car so we pulled off to the side of the road and the boys had to lift the car up and i had to reach under and grab the yellow thing. then we were afraid that it made our car leak. but we figured out it was just the water from the air conditioning. so. we kept driving. and it started raining off and on. and we passed the truck of death. you couldn't see ANYTHING because of all the water it was spraying on us. so we decided to pass it. but we couldn't see anything until we had passed it. very scary. hmmm.... so then we saw some rays of sunshine!!! they were our rays of hope! we were very happy about it. Then we stopped for food.... and then mark took over. and i don't really think anything bad happened with his driving. then we stopped in reno. and found some SUPER gangster people. i was scared so i left the gas station and went to the car. then everything was good. and we started to enter the pass. It was all good. and then we saw signs saying chains required trucks minimum. so we figured that only trucks needed chains. but then they made us pull over and put some on. sadly, none of us knew how to put them on, so we had to pay a guy 30 bucks to put them on for us. and then we only had them on for TWO MILES! so dumb. so we stopped to take them off and no one was the to help us. but then we saw jordan and his dad two cars ahead of us. so jordans dad helped us take them off. it took us about an hour to take them off. it was ridiculous. then everything was safe after that. haha. scott kept asking me where we were and what he should do and stuff. it was pretty funny. since i've never been to california or anything .ahhahaha.

Sounds like a pretty interesting trip. Sure glad I didn't know all of this while it was happening I would never have relaxed waiting for the call you arrived safe.
