Free trip!

Today is the first flight out of Provo to Oakland.  To celebrate, they had a contest to win a weekend getaway on the flight, and a three night stay in San Francisco.  The first 50 people in line got a key to open a lock, if the lock opened you won.  (Alcatraz themed idea...)

Tara and I went down at 5:45 this morning, I thought there would already be 75 people in line.  There were only two people in a car, that was it.  

Anyway, when they got around to the drawing, I was first in line.  I got two keys for coming dressed as a fisherman.  Didn't need the second, the lock opened with the first...  Tara wasn't paying attention, she was still trying to fish her key out.  The crowd looked a little shocked.

I had planned to say to myself "you have chosen --- poorly" ala Indiana Jones, I was not prepared to tell myself "you have chosen --- wisely"...

Long story short, we thrust our kids on my mom, and we are waiting to get on the plane.  I've never been to San Francisco.  We'll have to get my mom something nice for dealing with 10 kids over the weekend.
