Okay,
So Carrie gets this big idea that the kids need to go play on the stairs at the overpass. In Montpelier the highway was built over the train tracks and it is known as the overpass. There are stairs at the bottom and you can climb up and look across the highway. The main street in town also loops under this over pass. So we did. The kids loved it. Who would have thought cheap entertainment. Well it got even better when Jim Keetch ( Cop) showed up Telling us there was a complaint. It turns out someone called the police saying that there were children up top on the overpass. What these people did not know is that their mothers were there taking pictures of them at the bottom. Jim just laughed and we reminisked about the time this mother and her good friend Stacy hung a frozen coyote that Jared had shot in the winter with a rope over the overpass as a joke. We laughed until out throuts burned from breathing the winter air. Jared also used to climb up under the over pass and catch pigions for target practice. Yes. My husband is a murderer and that fact will never change. Um, I kind got off the subject. Any way, Cop thought the kids were cute. Kids had and adventure and I had something to blog about!

Reminiscing about the old days when Jared was a murderer... that's too funny! Isn't he STILL a murderer, though? I mean, he's never far from his hunting license and a rifle :) Glad I wasn't around to witness the dangling coyote carcass~ (shivver!)
Oh, the joys of living in Montpelier! I didn't know an overpass could bring so much excitement to Moms with cameras and cops with not much to do!
