When we were living in Togo Sask. Mom decided it was time to get out of the house. It was the middle of winter, and she had been cooped up wih 4 kids. Enough!

She decided to take us to a movie, and the only place was in Robin, Manitobe (just across the border. Off we went in frigid conditions-Mom, 4 kids and a really big car. We made it to Robin, and Mom decided the car needed a wash. We went, got the car washed and headed off to the movies! I think the movie was Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Everyone had a great time.

Until we got out to the car.

The doors were frozen shut! Because it was so cold, the water from the wash sealed the doors tight! It was freezing outside. Mom figured out a way to open the doors, and we all had a good laugh all the way home. Mom always was very creative, and tht night she got thoe doors open and got us home safe and sound. Needless to say, we never went to the movies in winter again!
