Chelle and Mel's Sunday Adventure - Part 1
Today Chelleybutton and I tried a new church. It's my coworker's church actually, and it's in downtown Minneapolis. We parked in a ramp.
After the service (which was nice), we got back in the car and followed the exit signs that directed us toward 2nd Avenue. We paid and went through the arm, and continued following the ramp as it curved to the right. There was a median, with one side blocked off, so we went to the other side, which curved some more. It narrowed, with construction equipment on one side and a kind of drop off on the other. And then there was a "Do Not Enter" sign. It was a dead end. There was no way out. To go forward meant no road, to go back meant backing up around a narrow curve with a drop-off and construction equipment, only to run into the arm. We were trapped.

It was so scary! I felt like we were in the 'Speed' bus or something! (But with no Keanu to rescue us...) I can't believe they had the nerve to charge us for that! :P

no kiddin'. i should write a strongly worded letter. maybe i'd get free twins parking then. ;)
:D (Although... do we really want to get free parking in one of the ramps??)
Ooh, good idea! Then when we got stuck again, we could not be as capable and have to ask the Twins for help! ;)
I feel like we needed dramatic music at the end of that! "Duh-duh-duhhhn!"
OK, Blogger is driving me crazy! I thought I posted that comment about not wanting free parking, and then I had a change of heart (b/c of the thought of the Twins rescuing us), but when I went back, that comment was gone! So I just said "good idea..." Anyway, that's why I sound so ridiculous, for the record. It's all Blogger's fault. P.O.C.
this comment thing is getting very annoying. (not you people commenting. that is not annoying. what is annoying is how it's not counting them, deleting them, reposting them, and all that. grr.)
Grr is right!
