What DO you DO.........

What do you do if you are on a really long road trip and you're not the driver??



You take a bunch of pictures and play with your new camera!!




What do you do if you finally decided to go and see a 'famous' natural phenomenon only to discover it's on property owned by people who charge you to see it??






You trespass and peek over the fence and take pictures REALLY fast and then run away!!


What do you do if you walk down the road to a restaurant for dinner and (many) drinks and as you are leaving a 'hurricane' (complete with sideways sheets of rain and gale force winds) hits.... and then once the nice couple from Massachusetts drops you off at your hotel the power goes out??


Well first you stand outside and watch as lighting flashes everywhere all around you. Then you go into your HOT no A/C room (no power=no A/C) and laugh about your adventure. Then you laugh even more at the fact that the fire department goes around to all the motels in town and goes door-to-door passing out glo-sticks. Then ...in your still a little drunk and silly state... have WAY more fun playing with the glo-sticks than any adult should be allowed.



What do you do if you only go on one big shopping trip a year??
You shop 'til you drop!!!!!!!!!




What do you do when you realize that your FAVORITE ICE CREAM SHOP in the WORLD has a shop in the town you are in?


What do ya think!? ;) ;)



What do you do if you go to the Dooney and Bourke outlet and they have some really cute...really discounted bags and you know your daughter would LOVE and FREAK OUT over her own 'Dooney'??

Well at first you do nothing. Then your friend talks you into it and even says she'll split it with you just to see the look on your daughter's face when she realizes it's for her. Then you hem and haw for at least 15 more minutes until finally giving in to peer pressure ;) :) and end up with one ECSTATIC little girl!

ROFLMA I have never thought about what it is you actually are doing on a road trip and then to document it in this fashion, awesome creativity. I must say the glow sticks have to be my favorite part of your story and the photo of your daughter is priceless!!
