Door Jam

January 20, 2009

The car was stuck in the snow in the drive way.  I turned down the fan and the radio and opened the door so I could hear and see the tires – so I wouldn’t spin them too much as I rocked out of the snow.  My sons were outside digging away at the snow under the car and behind the tires.

Yes!  I was starting to make it!  I was moving, faster, faster…     CRUNCH!!

I forgot to close the door, which was now wedged in the snow bank.  It was working just like the barb on a fishhook.  Now there’s a big hole in the back side of the snow bank – just big enough to, say, close a car door.
