piscesdreamsOn the drive to Alix Lake in Alberta, Nesha's dad, Don, swerved to the shoulder of the highway in order to avoid a gopher that ran onto the road. We were travelling at the speed limit at 110 kmph.
Don's girlfriend tore into him relentlessly. I felt bad for him and I didn't personally believe he did anything wrong. I know it's stupid to do something like this just to save the life of a rodent but I would have done exactly the same thing... instinctively or even purposely. I didn't feel our safety was compromised though since there was no sense of the car being out of control. It was a safe swerve.
Nesha tried to put a stop to her admonishing by reminding her not to upset the driver as she knew he was getting upset.
I did what I could by reaching forward and giving his shoulder a discrete, comforting pat.
