Good morning, good morning....

I just got up from my second morning sleep-in. Angie was up at 5:30 this morning, so I got up too. Then we both did our emails. So of course Brian was awake at the same time so we were emailing all morning, lol. Crazy eh. After getting the kids to school, I took my second nap. Here we go again and time for another shot at work.

Well its almost winter road season. I heard they are up to Magiss Lake which is getting pretty close. The in-laws will hopefully be driving up the road for X-mas.

Man that winter road is wicked. Me and Angie were getting a kick out of that time we drove up with Nash, Damin, Les, and Wyatt. This was a couple of years ago.

Anyways, we went into Winnipeg to buy vehicles for my best cuz Nash and my aunt Damin. She picked a Ford Ranger and he got a Chrysler Intrepid. So we were driving up the Red Lake road and then we hit the winter road. We knew we were in trouble because the snow was so deep and any time we stopped the car we would get stuck. So the entire trip was filled with ramming our way through the snow without trying to lose momentum. There was some crazy ass bumps and ruts all along the way with all our gear getting shifted in the vehicles. I must of hit my head 10 times on the roof.

Nash was driving his moms truck with her and I was close behind with the rest of the gang. Close to North Spirit Lake, Nash tells his Mom to watch out because they were going to hit a bump soon. I don't know if she heard him or not, but she just kept doing her thing which only Damin can do. At the time she was enjoying her 2 Litre bottle of Sunny D.

So she was taking this big drink out of this humongous bottle and then they hit the bump. BAAAMMM! Sunny D was everywhere. It was all over the cab of the truck. It was all over the windows, the ceiling, seats, and all over Damin LOL. Once we got close to Sandy Lake at the check point, Nash was telling me the story and showing me the juice all over the truck and I couldn't stop laughing. LMAO it was so funny. Of course she didn't think it was funny, lol. It wasn't till we got to the checkpoint that we found out the road was actually closed. We had a lot of close calls with spinning the car out a few times, barely getting through the slush, and barely making it out of the ruts. Man those vehicles took a beating.

Yeah, see what happens this winter road. Something crazy always happens. We should publish a book with stories and pictures of all the winter road craziness.

Have a good Monday
