Car runs on gas....

BASED ON A TRUE STORY....

Meet Betsy, Jake, and Amy. They are going to Moab to run. On Friday afternoon, Jake starts driving. They eat, laugh and talk. Ninety minutes later the car sputters and slowly rolls to a stop in the middle of nowhere.The car runs out of gas. They are nineteen miles from the next city and just one gallon short of making it there. Betsy and Amy laugh and laugh.Jake calls for help. No luck! Then he has a genius idea to make a sign. It says G A S. He gives it to the girls and sits embarrassed in the back seat.Betsy and Amy hold the sign for cars to read. Two cute girls, not many cars will pass? While waiting, they laugh and laugh some more. Finally a very nice family turns around and helps. They are saved and the race is on.

Ha ha ha. We call that stretch of road the Bermuda Triangle of Death. On three separate occasions we've run out of fuel, dragged a mountain bike behind us at full speed, and blown out a tire.

I'm glad you met a nice family to help. Have a good run!

You look cute, btw.

Way to go guys, if you break my car I will be pissed. But I am glad that you took it for a run it needs to be driven. I am also glad that you guys got gas and all was well. I hope the race went well and that nothing was hurt with my car. I know I should be worried about you but my car.....I love you all

Maddy, this was the first time your car has been driven since it was brought up to Idaho. The weather in Idado is 4 wheel drive right now. Everything is fine about your car though. We heard you are coming back to Utah????? Is that true?

YEs that is true...and I was JUST JOKING about the car, really it is mom and dad's so I can't really call it mine. But I am coming home to Utah for conference weekend. I am going to start working and then just work through the summer. I am glad that you took the car it has pretty good ga milage so I understnad. Thanks for taking care of the car for me while I was away.

Good idea to make a GAS sign and to have you two hot chicks hold it. Btw, your hair looks so cute!

And if Keli reads this again I just want to point out that apparently my hubby isn't the bad luck charm. (Unless he was with you-which I am pretty sure he wasn't)

And finally do you mind if I add your blog to my list of links...since I always come check out the haps anyways? Ü

amy k said...

Go ahead Laura. I don't mind at all. And thanks.

I guess Rob is only our bad luck charm, not theirs.

I still crack up thinking that every time those two boys are together, who knows what will happen. Silly boys...
