randomness

This life style is full of lots of randomness... You never know what is going to happen that day. But some of it turns out for the best. Like one day on our way out of cali we were on I-40 heading east towards flagstaff and sadly there was a bad accident and they shut the interstate down, for 3 hrs we sat there waiting for them to clean it up. Well before we got to the accident i saw a van flying by us, it was white with a logo on it that looked very familiar. I imediantly shouted it out and then began my frantic search on google... gotta love google! I was right! It was the van from American Pickers the TV show. And i was like no way, catch up i want to see if the stars of the show were in it. So tim tried but the van was hauling butt and thats when we came up to the accident. So while we were sitting there in a HUGE back up i noticed the van was only a couple cars away. just when i saw the van i noticed it was going to try and go through the grassy median to get to the other side and head back where it came from. And then... IT GOT STUCK!
We laughed about it for a little, while others got out and helped. I know how mean of us... but im sry, just looking at the grassy area i knew there was no way he would of made it. So after 20 mins or so of the people trying to get the van un stuck i told tim to go out there because he knew exactly what to do. and of course tim saved the day and got the van out of the grassy / really muddy area. And it turned out that it wasnt the stars of the show but the producer that was headed to the grand canyon to get some footage. He was super nice and we invited him into the truck where i made him a pulled pork sandwich and bottle of water and in return he gave us a mini poster of the show. So there i say randomness is pretty sweet sometimes.
