Charles being naive, not observant or just plain stupid?






I don’t know?

Anyway, I was outside of the City and noticed a snowmobile pulling a skier up a hill.

I told the guy to stop the car so I could take a few pictures.

I walked up the hill and I noticed a group of youths.

I began chatting with them until I noticed a very strong French accent.

I quickly said - You from Quebec?

Yes, they were all from Quebec.

I quickly replied- Ahhh..... Tous des maudit Quebecois!!!

They were all from the Canadian Army.

So? I explain to them that I was a blogger and if they would go up the hill so I could take a few shots for my blog?

Now? This is where it gets interesting!!!!

I taught the guy on the snowboard was just going to ski like a water skier would do in the water.







He would zig zag down the hill with the two dogs following close by.
Good shot eh?

Well???? I was 100% wrong!!!

The snowmobile began coming down the hill and he was going faster and faster.







I might add that the guy wasn’t zig zagging!!

The driver was moving very fast and the guy was right behind him.

I could tell by the look on the driver’s eyes that he was concentrating on the road ahead of him and he was moving very very very fast!!!







I wasn’t certain where he was going?

I began thinking - Is this payback time for saying - Les Maudit Quebecois????

It was too late for me to move because I wasn’t sure what was going on???

I was in the middle of a field with no where to jump on turn?? For once my ADHD would be no good to me in this situation.

If I moved right or left? That machine would hit me head on and it would be Bye Bye Charles!!!!

I said to myself - This is it!!!! It’s over!!!!

At the last second, the guy let go of the rope and headed towards a man made ski jump!!!







The snowmobile missed me by inches!!!! I took one last shot!







I never noticed the ski jump and I missed a good shot!!!!

My God? I almost took a heart attack.

I began laughing telling the youths that I didn’t know what was going on???

They were nice enough to do the routine one last time and this time around I took a nice shot of the guy jumping freely in the sky!







Lesson well learn!!!! I will never say to a bunch of youths - Les Maudit Quebecois in a open field again!!!! lol

By the way? They were a nice bunch of kids!!!!
