A WELL MET CHALLENGE!
WELL CHOSEN words!!!
for JULIE'S hard-working skills!!
Why do you ask?
Well Julie is a student that was 'parachuted' into
the intermediate group after only one session as a beginner.
Because I had to close this group and didn't want her
to lose what she had invested time and moneywise
Three
summers ago, my family and I went on vacation to Ontario. We always like to go
camping every summer with our caravan
(trailer home).
I suggested that she 'graduate' rapidly.
I also did the same for Lynda L. her then classmate.
BOTH are doing fine!!!

AN
UNLUCKY SITUATION
On one day, while we were there, we went to Marineland and
after to Red Lobster’s, my favourite restaurant. After
dinner we returned to the campground. On the way there, the police arrested me
because I was driving too fast. I didn’t know that the speed limit in Ontario
was lower than in Québec. Normally I’m not nervous but this time I realized
that I didn’t have my driver’s license.
“Oh!
Oh! I’m in trouble!” I said to myself.
The police officer, mmmm…, the ‘big’ police
officer walked towards my car with an angry face. I said, “Sorry! My husband
drank a lot and I wasn’t supposed to drive. So I don’t have my permit with me.
So sorry!”
The
officer said nothing and returned to the patrol car. He took a long time and
when he came back, he said, “Because you are a very responsible person, I’m
going to give you a ticket of 46$ instead of 246$” I responded by thanking him
so very much.
When
we arrived at the campsite we saw my cousin and he had been waiting for us to
come back. The awning of our trailer had been broken by the wind.
My husband’s
reaction was to exclaim,”TABARNAC!” Something he never says.
Right
now as I am writing this and thinking back, it makes me laugh but at that time,
it wasn’t so funny.
GOOD JOB, Julie!!!
I’m really glad that you took the challenge!
Ù Campground is the place (all the sites) Ù Campsite is where you park your trailer
