the day i almost died...

after the concert, we stayed in salt lake at natalie's aunt's house. driving home on sunday morning was ridiculous. we had to leave at 8:30 in order to "beat the storm." too bad we ended up leaving at possibly the worst time of the day. it took us forever to get home driving 30 mph the whole time. even though we were being really careful, we spun out! twice!
the first time, we spun to our left and did a 360 and then spun the other way and did a 180. if you haven't already figured it out, that means we were in the middle of the freeway facing the wrong direction. luckily the two cars behind us were going really slow and we were able to turn around without stopping too much traffic.
the second time, was seemed a lot more intense. we only 3/4 of a turn this time, but we were spinning much faster. we were in furthest right lane and spun all the way to the left side of the freeway! natalie maneuvered the car so we gracefully backed into the median area and waited for traffic to pass. her car wouldn't turn on though and it was a little scary. but, it eventually started and we were back on our way to provo!
and that was the day i almost died...
