vacation
i went to moab with my parents this weekend and came away from it with some new lessons learned. here are some important DO's for a peterson family vacation...
while nobody's looking, DO go through the "travelling cd's" and hide anything with the phrase "... classic country story ballads" in the title.
if the mythical "organic black crust" is found while hiking DO jump up and down and shout "le sol vit! le sol vit!"
when my mom enthusiastically explains her plan to leave her key chain collection as a legacy to my children, DO exclaim "why?!" with a look of fear and repugnance.
if a rattlesnake is encountered at dead horse point, DO burst into a crocodile hunter impression in front of all the non-english speaking tourists.
while watching "i love the 70's", DO explain that the commentary is sarcastic and not meant as a personal attack against the osmond's.
when my dad accidentally drifts off the canyon road, then overcorrects making the car spin uncontrollably, then squeals to a stop an inch away from some rock monument, DO say, "that... was... AWESOME."
