I like to pretend I'm rebellious

This weekend I got to check off one item on my bucket list! I still get giddy just thinking about it. I have ALWAYS wanted to drive on the Authorized Vehicles Only turnabout things on the highways. ALWAYS!!


On Friday I was driving with my friend, & he thought he'd missed our exit. He very nonchalantly (I was SO impressed because if I'd been in the driver's seat I'd have been screaming the whole time- an exhilerated/excited/terrified-of-getting-in-trouble scream) pulled off the fast lane and drove onto the gravel. My mouth hung open! But that's not even the best part! Turns out we didn't miss the exit, so we got to do it again!!! So I cleverly & quickly snapped this shot with my phone. Such events in life MUST be documented.

HAAAA!! This is awesome! You just better hope I don't show this to my officer friends and get you in trouble... lol. Yep, all those officer friends of mine. ;) Totally proud of you and "said friend." (I won't incriminate him.)

Wow, I am so proud of you! You have one super, extremely brave friend. I can almost perfectly imagine your reaction to this experience.

Nice! what's next? drive in the carpool lane alone!! And so I don't get reported by Ash :) I'll just say it may or may not be exhilarating and convenient!

Ash would have officer "friends". Glad you are still with us and not in the Fillmore county jail. We would have had to come and bail you out. What would your mother think? :)
