Und ich arbeitete part-time. Normalerweise arbeitete ich als Waitress in Bars und so weiter. Aber nur, damit ich schnell Geld und Geld verdienen konnte. I want to say this is probably around 1993. And my kids would have been like two and four at the time. I would take my children with me and I would take them to their grandparents' house for the weekend so that they could visit.

But then it would kind of free me up so I could work and make money. So, I know this drive like the back of my hand because I did it all the time. It would take about three hours. I have this weird thing that I do when I drive. It's kind of like when you try and beat your GPS. I knew how long it would take me to get to each part.

I still do it to this day and I would just watch the clock all the time. But the clock in my car was not like a digital clock. It actually had hands on it because this was a really old car. So I knew it took me like two hours to get from Charleston to Columbia. And then just under an hour to get from Columbia to my home where I lived in Augusta. Because I lived kind of a little just outside of it.

So it's about a three hour drive. And this was a Sunday. I went and picked my children up from my husband at the time's parents' home. Und es fing an zu schneien. Wir bekommen hier nicht oft Schnee. Und sie sagten, oh, geh nicht. Es kommt ein Schneesturm. Du wirst nicht fahren können. Du wirst die Kinder im Auto haben. Und ich sagte, ich habe morgen Arbeit. Ich kann nicht aus der Armee ausruhen.

Also muss ich gehen. Ich stoppte an meiner Mothers Haus. Und meine Mutter wusste, dass ich auf der Straße war. Und ich habe immer meine Mutter angerufen, wenn ich nach Hause kommen würde, weil das war, bevor alle Telefonen hatten. Also, außerhalb ihres Hauses, wahrscheinlich 25, 30 Minuten, vielleicht, gibt es eine Rettungszone.

Es gibt keine andere Rettungszone, bis direkt außerhalb Kolumbiens, was die 2-Hour-Dreieck-Marke ist. So I got my children, got on the road and I left in the morning. So it's daylight, but it's snowing. So it's kind of like it almost looks like it's becoming evening. It's just like kind of a weird light outside, not bright sun.

I wasn't driving very long, but I started getting sleepy like as soon as I started driving. So I'm like, okay, I'm gonna stop at this rest area, get a cold drink and So I get to the rest area. I got out the car. It was snowing outside. It was really cold. My children were sleeping in the back. So I got a cold Dr. Pepper and I stood outside in the cold and I smoked a cigarette.
