Thankfully, Doug’s parents braved the snowstorm and picked us up, bringing the spare car key. They took us and the dog to their house where we were able to call my boyfriend’s parents. Luckily after a few hours of trekking back toward town in the freezing cold and snow, an elderly couple driving by kindly picked us up (we still call them our angels!). Sit out in the cold and wait for someone to find us. A snow storm was blowing in and everyone was high-tailing it out of the park.ġ.

But when we got to the parking lot, we realized we had locked ourselves out of the car!Īnd to make matters worse, the parking lot was deserted. We decided to take the dog back to the parking lot and see if anyone wanted to claim him. When we arrived at Looking Glass Mountain in Pisgah National Forest and started up the trail, we discovered a cute, but very lost dog. It was Valentine’s Day weekend and I had flown up to Georgia to visit Doug, my boyfriend. He had a full day of hiking in the mountains planned so we packed up a picnic lunch and headed out for a day of fun. So here’s my story that began as a nightmare, but turned into a fairytale.
