Lena and the snow plow

[gator8_24]

Up there by Lake Woebegone it was snowing heavily and blowing to the
point that visibility was almost zero when Lena got off work. She made
her way to her car and wondered how she was going to make it home.

She sat in her car while it warmed up and thought about her situation.
She remembered Ole's advice that if she got caught in a blizzard, she
should wait for a snow plow to come by and follow it. That way she would
not get stuck in a snow drift. This made Lena feel much better and sure
enough in a little while, a snow plow went by, and she started to follow
it.

As she followed the snow plow, she was feeling very smug as they
continued, and she was not having any problem with the blizzard
conditions.
After quite sometime had passed, she was somewhat surprised when the
snow plow stopped and the driver got out and came back to her car and
signaled her to roll down her window.

The snow plow driver wanted to know if she was all right, as she had been
following him for a long time. She said that she was fine and told him of
Ole's advice to follow a snow plow when caught in a blizzard. The driver
replied that it was OK with him, and she could continue if she
wanted...but
he was done with the Wal-Mart parking lot and was going over to Kmart
