Barb was playing in a pickleball tournament a couple of
hours south of Avon
Park where we used to
live. So Barb and I drove down to Avon Park
and stayed over night at my sister's house and then Barb went to her tournament
the next day. She came home earlier than
I thought she would. I was out with my
old friend from softball watching the NFL playoff game at one of his friend's
house. I left the house at halftime
saying I should see if Barb was home yet.
Meanwhile Barb was out on my sister's golf cart looking for me. Eventually we found each other back at my
sister's house and decided not to stay for dinner but head home early because
there was a big storm coming through.
About half way home we got hit by the storm and I could hardly see the
road. I kept driving though until Barb
said we should pull over into a drug store parking lot to wait until the storm
passed. I pulled off the road at the
turn that I thought was the drugstore parking lot entrance but it turned out to
be the entrance to a highway. So I quickly veered back on the road and found
the exit to the parking lot. We just got
in the parking lot and the storm cleared.
So we didn't even stop the car, I just got back on the road and kept
driving. We could have been in an
accident trying to avoid an accident.
