Midnight Topless Jeeping Escapade

So last night Jared and Sam were going to come over and hang out with us. Jared called to tell us that Sam was going to have a girl's night with an old friend and wondered if it would still be ok if just he came over. By the time we ate dinner and the boys finished Inception, it was pretty late and we weren't sure what we should do. They decided that we should go Jeeping and it would be ok because, "we have headlights".

As fun as being the only girl sounded...I decided to call Jessie and see what she was doing. Lucky her she didn't have plans (since it was already 10 o'clock by that point). So we drove up to Riley's parents house, took the top and doors off the Jeep, snagged Jessie and were on our way.

Our plan was to drive up to the top of Bountiful canyon and then cut over to Farmington and come down. About halfway up another car stopped us and said that the gate at the bottom of Farmington Canyon was closed, so if we were headed that direction we wouldn't be able to get out. Glad he stopped us or that would have been a really long drive and would have REALLY sucked. Because after we stopped for about a half hour to watch the lightning, it started pouring rain on the way down! Who knew that rain came with lightning and thunder? Weird!

Jessie and I were lucky enough to have the blankets that I insisted we grab before the ride "just in case" but Riley and Jared were stuck in the front in the downpour. I wish I would have gotten a picture of them after we got home :)

*Note to self*-Rain usually accompanies lightning, and driving in a Jeep without a top in the rain is NOT a good idea. We had a lot of fun though and just had to laugh, or else the situation would have really sucked.

--Memorable quotes from the night--

-"I always thought that guys just, you know, had an extra bone than girls. How else would people know if a skeleton was male or female?!" -Jessie

-"Guys, birds just freak me out. Seriously. Like, why don't they have hands??"-Jessie

-"Jessie, I DON'T want to talk about Moses right now, ok?"-Alyssa

-"Watch guys, I have a really cool dance for you." (As he proceeds to hold himself up by the bars of the roll cage and swing his legs around) -Jared

-"This is the coolest thing ever guys!" "What? Standing up?" "Yes...." -Jared

-"The second I get my camera out there's no more lightning. What the heck."- (Me) "I can make a rapist noise...?" -Riley
