Texas-2010

I know Elena already blogged about this but it is too funny not to write about! Poor mom, hadn't been driving too long in New Mexico when she got pulled over. I had just told her she was allowed five miles over the speed limit and she saw a 45 mile per hour sign so she said, "Oh, good I can go 50". Sure enough, flashing lights in a matter of seconds. Mom then tells the officer, "I'm allowed 5 over." and he says, "Yes ma'am I understand that but you were going 50 in a 35". Then ol' Loosey Goose demands to know where the sign was because we certainly didn't see one. Needless to say she got a whopping $86.00 fine! I asked the officer if I could take a picture of the two of them for my scrap book and he laughed and said that would be fine. You can take a Reidhead out of the fight but you can't take the fight out of the Reidhead!!
