I forget which national park parking lot we were in but when we got out we told the kids to roll up the windows and locked the car. When we got back late in the afternoon...yep, you guessed it, keys were locked in the car and so were the spares since I had decided not to take my bag with me. Fortunately, our son had failed to roll his window up all the way, had about an inch. one of the other travelers in the park happened to have a wire hanger in their trunk and with some maneuvering, we managed to get the car unlocked. what a relief as it was getting dark and we were in the middle of nowhere.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-92169230960205911532011-04-25T17:02:42.398-05:002011-04-25T17:02:42.398-05:00Great story.

I think the natural thing to do when we panic is barely breathe, the very thing we need right then. So glad you aren't driving around with duct tape on the window.CiCihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08615265608675467505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-66776125868884788282011-04-25T02:30:48.512-05:002011-04-25T02:30:48.512-05:00Yay for breathing!

I'd probably just burst out crying until spent and then when that's over I'd think of more practical ways to solve the problem! :-)<br /><br />Take care<br />xOld Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13185547869183611159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-14700346706089100682011-04-24T21:13:44.814-05:002011-04-24T21:13:44.814-05:00Excellent story.
