Need a laugh?

So we (Brock, Holly, Hailey, and me) were heading up to Fairview to find some cabin where our basketball team was holding their retreat. It was such a long drive to get there in the first place and then we started getting directions from a grandma. (no offense against grandmas)
So we get to the first gate and you have to have a code to open it..instead of just telling us the code she tells us to wait for someone to come along and follow them in. So we sit...Its not like we were gonna remember the code and drive down and raid her cabin! Finally someone comes and we get through. So now she tells us to drive until we see a pond and then turn right. Keep in mind it's pitch black outside so we aren't going to see a stinkin pond. Oh well so we start driving..oh and she does say that there will be about 2 inches of snow. We just keep driving trying to find it because by now we have lost reception and can't call her. We are now driving in 2 FEET of snow..thank goodness for 4-wheel drive..and decide to turn around and go back down the mountain so we can call her. These are her exact words:

Grandma: Did you pass a meadow?
Brock: We past a lot of meadows.
G: Ok your gonna want to turn right at the pond after you've passed the second meadow.
B: After the pine tree on the right?
G: Yes.
(Bursts of laughter from everyone in the car)
G: Have you seen a white truck?
B: Nope. No white truck.
G: You must've passed it.
There was no sign of life anywhere by the way..
B: Ok we will just start looking again.
G: Ok just remember after you see the pine tree on the right there will be some snow and then you will pass a second meadow where the pond is and that is where you turn right. After you turn right there will be a dip in the road that goes down and then back up and you'll also cross a creek. You can't miss it.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Oh man, I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard! It was great. Oh and luckily we did find the white truck and just followed him there. Adventure? I would say so.
