We are off to Kalahari for the first time in the new year. This is actually an extended Christmas gift for quite a few that have never been here and just plain excitment for those that have been in the pass. There are 26 of us scheduled to go. Hope everyone is able to join us. Updates will follow soon after our return sometime tomorrow.
Well, as it turned out it was a rather challenging venture to get to Kalahari as we had major snow storm that hit. There was a total of four vehicles that were on the way two were about half hour ahead of us. Heather and myself were one exit away from getting off the turnpike and Heather hit black ice and spun out of control. It was very fortunate that she did not make contact with any of the other vehicles on the road including a semi. She did however go bouncing off on two wheels into the ditch. Everyone in the car was ok and no one was hurt thank goodness. Originally they were going to try to dig the car out and go from there but there was a lot more damage to the car then we had originally seen as the tire was completely off and it wasn't going anywhere without a tow. We put everyone in my van and after the Highway Patrol was there and making sure that everything was ok I went on to get everyone delivered to Kalahari. Julius waited with the car until the tow driver got there almost a hour and half later (JP was freezing) and then the car was brought to Kalahari also. We got a tow back to Toledo for the car the next day.
After time for everyone to recover and be thankful for the safety all all we went on to have a great visit. Let's see there was Mojo, Dominic, Robin, Emma, Alayna, Jenni, Bill, Kenzy, Morgan, Mason, Brayden, Ashley, Scott, Derrin, Makiya, Heather, Julius, Demitrius, Isabella, Kalee, Britenee, Melinda, Madison, Marianna and Me. This is the first time that Jenni and her family and Marianna had ever been there. Just in case anyone was wondering what a lot of the group was looking at there in the corner where some are standing with their mouth hanging open, Jenni has fallen down between the group there that is why she isn't in the picture and has caused all the excitement in that corner. Yes, she was alright just a little embarrassed.
More to come~~
