Frontrunner FAIL!

For anyone who knows me, I don't always have the best of luck.
I tend to be a little clumsy, and things dont always go my way...

This happened a little while ago, and am just now getting around to posting about it,
but it is quite the sad tale.
A while ago, Mike and I had this brilliant idea that we would
ride frontrunner down to Orem, instead of paying for gas.
Through UHEAA, Mike's place of employment, he gets free UTA travel,
so we would only be paying for one ticket. 

It was a brilliant idea... In theory...

Earlier that morning, we had decided to walk to the station, and even save 
more gas by doing so. 
Little did we know, it would take us a whole hour to get to the station! 
It was snowing, the snow on the ground had turned to slush, and definitely windy.
Nevertheless, we pressed onward determined to make it to the station. 

Upon arrival to the station, we couldn't find a time for the train to leave.
We had heard rumors that the train left every 20 minutes, 
and decided to just buy the ticket and wait.
After purchasing the ticket, we realized the train wouldn't come for another
3 hours... 

At this point, we were completely distraught! Only then did we remember that
we did not need to walk all the way to the station because we could have gotten on the free trax to the station... 

It a devastating day. Fail, after fail. 

We just couldn't catch a break!

Picture taken after we took the trax home... 
We were all still smiles!

Thanks for reading!
