out of gas... on I15

well...this has got to be one of the best saturdays that i have had in a long time. wanting so much to get out of pocatello, we decided to head to logan. so by 11am we left... the roads were great, and Cafe` Rio was calling! lunch was amazing. we walked around Kohls (a fav store), then went to see National Treasure 2 (good show). i am not sure when we had to come back home...sometime just before 7pm i think. no worries. it had quit snowing, and we really had no where to go but home. we stopped off at the creamery where they make Fat Boys. YUM!!!! ice cream is never a bad thing. then we were back on the road. we almost hit a raccoon, and just as we ran out of gas, it started to snow! we were a mile or so just out of mccammon. after laughing at ourselves for a few minutes we got out of the car and walked to the nearest mile marker, so we knew where to tell AAA where we were. by the time we got back to the car and had triple A on the phone, an older gentleman, and a cop stopped to help us. when the man asked what was wrong...he said that he could pretty much help us with anything but gas... dang. luckily the cop just pulled up really close behind us popped the hood and pumped a couple of gallons of gas into our car! (: it was really funny. we ended up not needing to use AAA and just found it funny that we were in the dark, in the snow, a cop was giving us gas, and all we could do was laugh at ourselves while we tried to decide if the cop was single! (: HA! we arrived home in no time. made some yummy chip dip, and then watched the rest of Pride and Prejudice. it was a great night! i know that one day we will have to be grown ups about making sure we have enough gas... but it was fun!
