Getting Stuck in Pennsylvania by Caleb


Last week, we decided to go to Hobby Lobby because my sisters needed some “things” for a bake-off.  We went to the Hobby Lobby in Easton, PA.  We went into Hobby lobby and it took my sisters forever! Finally after the shopping was finished, we came out and guess what?  It was snowing.  We left the store and started home.  It was snowing hard.  We ended up getting stuck in the snow in the hills of Pennsylvania.  We didn’t know how we were going to get home.  I started feeling a little scared.  My Dad said, “Don’t be scared.”  How can you not be scared?  We decided we were not going to make it home, so we needed to try to find a hotel.  After finally making it back to Easton, it took us a while to find a hotel that had rooms available.  Finally, we found one.  We went up to our room, then I discovered that my bed was very uncomfortable.  After we got in, we decided to watch “The Bible” on the History Channel.  After that, we went to bed.  When we woke up, we went downstairs for breakfast and then decided to try to find our way back to New Jersey.  Thank goodness the roads were cleared.  So here are three things I learned from this adventure.  1.  ALWAYS CHECK THE WEATHER BEFORE YOU LEAVE.  2.  ALWAYS KEEP FOOD WITH YOU.  3.  IT IS POSSIBLE TO HAVE SNOW DAYS, EVEN WHEN YOU HOMESCHOOL.  Yee-haw!!!

  1. Great story, Caleb! I'm glad you decided to get a motel for the night!!--but sorry your bed was uncomfortable! That makes you appreciate your nice bed at home! I've been watching "The Bible" on the History Channel, too. But, it sounds like the trip was worth it because your sisters won the bake-off! --And, you were all together having yet another adventure in New Jersey!!
