My Weekend Adventure

Having a four day weekend can be exciting. I was super excited because the first time in a long time, some of my friends and I decided to go to my mountain house. We decided to go Saturday morning and head out around one p.m. Of course, having four girls go, we were already two hours late heading out. My cabin is about an hour away, so we arrived around four p.m. We had brought burgers and we did a huge cookout and then watched the football game. We noticed on the way up that the weather was getting colder but we figured since we were going up the mountain that was normal. After supper, we made a huge fire inside and decided to get settled in for the night. My friend, Taylor, was responsible for the firewood. Around midnight, Taylor went outside to get the last couple of logs, when she came running in, saying we had to go. It was so cold, and we didn't check the weather channel and it had starting snowing really hard. By the time we had noticed anything, it was already three inches of snow. We started rushing around grabbing our bags and shoving our clothes in them. By the time we had packed everything, the snow was up to four inches. We loaded everything in the car and I went inside to lock my cabin. My cabin has a code on it, instead of a key lock. The code decided to quit working. So instead of leaving right then, we had to spend an extra hour fixing my lock. So by the time we left it was five inches of snow. It took us three hours to get home because of the snow; so much for a relaxing weekend in the mountains.
