So....when we bought the Pilot, we didn't want to pay the extra few thousand dollars for 4-wheel drive because we kept thinking - when will we ever need to use 4-wheel drive in Nashville, TN? You might remember our story from a few weeks ago when it snowed & we got stuck going up our hill and slammed into another car? Well....this is Phase II of that story.
It started snowing out of nowhere this evening on my way to bible study in Cool Springs. By the time I got there it was snowing buckets so we cancelled the study and I started making my way back across town. I decided to take the interstate to West End Avenue and then get off and come across Hwy 70 to get home. Mistake!!! Hwy 70 was pretty bad and when I was less than 5 miles from home, cars started spinning all around me. Several cars were slammed into the guardrail and others were sliding from right to left. It was so scary...I actually started crying and called Ryan because I didn't know what to do. I knew that I wasn't going to be able to make it up our hill so Ryan told me to park at Papa Johns and walk. I ended up pulling into the church right by Papa Johns and I then proceeded to WALK probably a mile and half, in the POURING snow, UP the BIG HILL in nothing but my Juicy Suit. I didn't even have good shoes!! It was so sad. Ryan and Madison Claire were anxiously waiting for me at the front door. If you look closely in the first picture, you'll see my lone footprints on the sidewalk...
Should have bought that 4-wheel drive!
