The short cut...

I spent a lovely afternoon today with Hollie and Israel and their children. On the way home I decided to pop into town to pick something up. A drive I take daily and is about 5 mins. Now the traffic lights in town don't work due to a fire in a building a few months back. So I decided to cut out the traffic lights and take a short cut down the back roads. Simple.

However...I took the wrong road. Apparently. I ended up in the mountains. Lost!! I had no clue where I was. I couldn't even see town, yet was only 5 mintues away. I was so confused. I text my friend...no reply..and so I called Hollie. How could I explain where I was when I had no idea. I couldn't just turn around as I had been all over the place trying to find town!! She just agreed I was lost on the mountain and to ask anyone I could see.

Well, I sat and prayed and a taxi passed me and so I followed it back. I really was v close to town..apparently! The road took me straight to the shop I had been trying to get to! Not so much a short cut. My friends think I am totally insane now...maybe they have a point!
