Run in with the law

On Thursday when Craig got home we quickly had dinner and then went to the grocery store. We didn't want to wait till the weekend, because there was a football game on Saturday. When football season starts you do not want to be on the roads, there is a lot of people, most of them from out of town, and there are a lot of cops looking for drunk drivers.

Walmart is very busy if you go during a home game during football season, it is likely that you will see several RVs in the parking lot. There were RVs already parked in front of Walmart and it was only Thursday.

We were on our way home, about to get on the highway, when we saw lights behind us, my heart dropped, Craig pulls over, and I am asking Craig, "Were you speeding?", "Did you run a red light?", "What did you do?" The cop informs Craig that his headlights are not on, (just a note, there are not a lot of streetlights in this town, the roads are really dark at night, we happened to be on one of the few roads that has a few streetlights). Fortunately we were not drunk, the cop wondered if we did not have our lights on because we were drunk, and he lets us go. Thankfully!
