The Best Pagel-ism in the History of Pagel-isms!!!!

Today we were driving to Shipshewana and there was all kinds of road construction. The back windows of the van were cracked and the smell of asphalt was drifting into the car. Nathan asked what smelled. I told him it was the asphalt and explained that the asphalt was the top layer of road, the black stuff. Okay, he didn't question it anymore and seemed to know what I was talking about. A minute or two later we get to another spot that really smelled bad and he says.......wait for it......."I still smell asses!" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! He totally didn't mean it that way, but it was hilarious!!!!

On a side note, I ended up locking my keys AND cell phone in the car while we at Shipshewana. The pay-phones wouldn't make a long distance call no matter how much money I put in and Dustin didn't answer his cell phone when I finally bummed a call off the coffee shop. I finally got ahold of him when I called from the bank and he was able to get down there with a spare key. In 10 years of driving, I think that is the first (and hopefully last) time I've done that. I felt so stupid!
