The short cut
So we decided to take the road the man told us to take so that we could beat the crowd to the grand canyon. We were all enjoying the trip and mum and shawn's dad where taking turns driving so that they would not get too tired.
About halfway between the two places we started going up a big sand hill with steep drops on either side which gave me the creeps. We went round a corner and there was a tree, shawn's dad try to dodge it but he was too late and we hit it and it brettey much split the car in half.
When i woke up about an hour later ( well that what my mum told me) and still nobody had drove past and it was getting dark. Mum shawn and I were standing outside the card but shawn's dad was still knocked out. It was dark when we saw lights coming up the hill and we tried to light a fire so that they could see us. It took awhile but they finally arrived when they saw our fire. The husband-tim and wife-maggie were running late to their hotel when the found us. By that time shawn dad had woken up but he couldn't get out of the car so tim was trying to get him out and he did it pretty quickly and then we squeezed into the car and they got us to our destination.
