I'm not really sure what to blog about tonight so i guess i'll write about the small mishap we had as we were trying to leave Gore Mountain today. So my parents were pretty excited that we got through this skiing trip without any major problems or injuries, as they were telling me as we were walking to the car after we had finished for the day. Unfortunately they had spoken to soon! We got to the car and had taken off and put all our equiment away and were in the car ready to head back to the hotel. So my dad puts the car in reverse and we go absolutely nowhere. The truck is stuck! Apparently from the snow they had been getting all day ice had formed under the tires and the wheels weren't catching on anything so we went nowhere. My dad was not a happy camper so to say. He tried just about everything to get us out because he is one of those people who hates to ask for help. So anyways he made me get behind the wheel and try and reverse the truck while he pushed from the front, then the door, and then he even tried sitting on the back to see if added weight back there would do anything..nope. Eventually he did ask for help and this guy came with this huge John Deere machine and effortlessly pulled us out. Personally i was relieved because it was cold...if only my dad had asked for help sooner lol but what are you going to do. So that was our little mishap and unfortunately we will be back in Endicott tomorrow...hopefully there won't be any problems on the ride home!

Bummer. Mother Nature certainly likes to remind us who is in charge.
