An experience that could've changed my life.

My life has been a journey. from age 1 to 12 but, the highlight of my childhood would be getting into a car accident at the age 3.
   I don't remember much. I lived in a small town called 100 Mile House. 10 minutes outside of 100 Mile is 108 Mile Ranch were most people lived.It was me and my grandpa heading to his house from town. It  was early winter about November. Where his drive way was there was a tall twisty hill and a corner and at this time it was icy. You couldn't see around the corner so you had to be very careful when turning. My grampa was always very careful. We got ready to turn, no cars coming, we turned and stopped! question whizzed through my head. Why had we stopped in the middle of the road? I was in the back seat behind the passengers, my grandpa extended his hand over my face. Just in case the glass shattered. We were in his huge F-150 golden truck. screeching to a hault the small red car drifted and BANG. They hit us head on. The truck rocked and slid down the hill. I didn't even flinch a bit. Then again I had no idea what was going on. I sat there so still.  My grandpa was as frantic as a queen bee.
"Are you okay?!" he asked with much question. All I did was stare. I was fine. My grandpa stepped out of the truck. Looking at the damage.  Apparently, the damage was quite bad.  The women came out of their car. The headlights on the car were shattered, little bits and peices of glass were scatered on the road. It was an older lady with blonde curly hair and was short.  All I heard next was sirens coming our way. I was waiting in the truck, looking out the window. There I saw my great grandma coming up the driveway. She looked worried. She opened the door. Grabbing me and taking me in the house. By this time the police were here. we quickly walked into the house. This here is the only part of the whole experience. My Gramma set me on the floor and took of my shoes. For some very odd reason, this is the only part I remember. I don't remember getting hit, or anything. Being told this story when I was about 10 years old surprised me very much. At first I thought they were lieing. But they weren't. It was 100% true. Everyone was fine in the accident, except our truck, which had to be fixed it had a huge dent in the back. It was towed away. when I ever see a car accident. It always brings me back to these thoughts. I always hope everyone is okay because luckily I didn't get hurt, or anyone who was involved. What if I did? Life just wouldn't be the same. To be continued...

In a Volcano!

A group of people stuck in a volcano, covered in cement.

I was wondering around a deserted island searching for snap shots of the beautiful landscape around me. Walking through the glorious trees of the island the sun shone through.. a wonderful picture. But, there ahead of me was an awfully large volcano. It was amazing! I wondered how long it has been since it erupted?  I was desperate to go up the volcano! I just had to, it would be perfect for the winning photo! I crept closer to base. It sure was a long way up. But, I knew i could do it. I put my camera in my bag and, began the journey. UP, UP, UP, is all i was doing. About half way. There was a very fresh smell, like rain. I didn't want it to rain on a magnificent day like today. But, i just kept going. Closer to the top the rocks got loose, slipping and holding on to dear life not to fall. Ahead of me was what looked to be a footprint. A human footprint. Someone has been here not to long ago. 10 minutes later I reached the top. sighing with relief. Sitting on a surface, I drank some ice cold water. Ahhhh. I was silent for a moment, when I began to hear sounds very faintly... help..... hello? anyone? It must of been my imagination because there was no one else here. Only me. I heard it again, please? look look down... hello? Confused. My heart began to beat. My stomach had butterflies. I decided to look in the volcano. Carefully i extended my head over the mouth of the volcano, And there they were, real people in the volcano covered in cement. My heart beat even faster! I could not have that happen to me. No way! I grabbed my camera Took my pictures of the view. I even took a picture of the people. I couldn't do anything to save them. I had no rope chains anything. I told them I'd bring help very soon! I scrambled down the volcano. thoughts flew through my mind. I had to help! I needed cell service, to call the police. Finally I got an area. Ring Ring Hello? "help me please, I'm on an island in the ocean, right outside the town, there are people stuck in the volcano. Help!" "We're on our way." The police officer replied very quickly.
When they got here, they climbed up the volcano and saved the cement covered people. They were rushed to the hospital Right away. I was relieved, I saved Some people, and got the most beautiful pictures. I couldn't wait to go home and tell my friends!
