Longest Commute Ever!

Last night Joel was on the Frontrunner when it hit a car in Kaysville... (ksl.com) From there the evening went something like this....as per our text messages:

(J) 4:25pm - We just hit a car...I'll be late.

(H) 4:26pm - Nice.

(J)4:27pm - Yup...Amazing we couldn't even feel it, only heard it then passed the wreckage.

(H)4:27pm - Do you want me to come and get you?

(J)4:31pm - Yes. I don't know where I'll end up. Probably Layton. We're stopped in Kaysville.

(H)4:31pm - K, I'll head to Layton.

(J)4:50pm - KSL Radio just interviewed me on air...that's just weird.

(H)4:50pm - Sweet! 102.7?

(J)4:51pm - Yes. Maybe TV too.

(J)5:05pm - Grandma just heard me on TV...called my parents :-)

(H)5:10pm - Sweet! I'm here in Layton....There are cars everywhere!

(J)5:10pm - Chopper 5 is here now.

At this point I sat in the parking lot talking to him, trying to referee the fights going on at home via phone, and reading my kindle....it was awesome....NOT!

(J)6:24pm - We're still not moving. Go home and wait there. I'll just come home when I can.

(H)6:15pm - Okay, the kids are starving...Sorry :-( Love you!

(J)6:16pm - It's okay. I'm just reading tech news. Love you too.

(J)6:21pm - We're going to move.

(J)6:21pm - BUT, they can't say which way....Jeeeeze

(J)6:22pm - We're not going to a station. I'll see you at home.

(H)6:28pm - Were are you going?

(J)6:29pm - They say we are going to go south a few hundred feet and get out at the crossing where the accident happened...BUT we haven't moved yet.

(J)6:59pm - We're moving!!

(H)6:59pm - Finally!

(J)7:02pm - **He sent the picture at the top of the blog...the van is on the tow truck**

(J)7:10pm - Oh man. I'm on a bus. It's going to Ogden, according to the driver. He said he'll also stop in Roy...It's crazy how unorganized they are.

(J)7:25pm - Just went past Roy. Awesome. Ogden is the first stop I guess.

(H)7:25pm - Nice. What a long night...I'm sorry.

(J)7:40pm - I'm in Roy!! See ya in a minute.
