As we made our way through the canyon, meanwhile we were becoming more comfortable with our situation. My mom suddenly yells at us to hold on and in a split second our pick-up glides across the road …show more content…
causing us to spin in circles. In all the commotion everything turned to slow motion as the white snow around us turned into a white whirl. Everyone was trying to hold themselves down as our pick-up slid to a sudden stop. A deer had run across the icy road right in front of us causing my mom to tap her brakes to avoid hitting the deer. Mom lost control almost immediately of the pick-up because the tires could not catch traction on the black iced covered roads.
My mom asked me and my sisters if we were all right and in our shell-shocked state we simply nodded our heads as we looked around to analyze our situation.
I suddenly realized the accident had put our pick-up right into a snowbank. The pick-up was completely covered in a white blanket of snow all around us. My mom tried to back us back out of the snowbank, but with our luck it the truck was stuck. After we couldn’t escape the snowbank I started to freak out screaming that we were all going to die! But my mom reassured me that we would be okay and would soon be out and on our way. As we waited in the pick-up it began to slowly getting colder and colder which was not a pleasant experience. We were waiting for my grandpa to come to our rescue. The sun started to slowly go down and the darkness and cold of the night began to overcome us in the snowy canyon. We were all freezing, but trying to make the most of our current situation we began to listen to music. While listening to the music we got lost in our jamming out session and in what it felt like no time at all my grandpa arrived. He pulled us out of the dreadful snow and made sure our pick-up was alright. I talked about what had happen like as if i almost
died.
I called my grandpa my savior. We will always remember that accident because it was so eventful and it was yet another time when my grandpa was there for us. He has always been there for me, and it shows me how much he cares and loves me.
