The Great Hamburger Search

You may have heard that Atlanta, Georgia got blasted by ice and snow.  That didn't stop my boy from wanting to go out in search of a good burger.

"Mama, can we go to Five Guys?"  he asked.  (That's his favorite burger joint.)

"Bubba, there's some nasty weather heading our way.  It's not a good idea to go out right now."

"But Mama, I need a hamburger!"

I shook my head.  "Ask your dad."

He did.  And my husband, being the crazy person he is, decided it would be a wonderful idea to go to Five Guys.

The boys headed out as the snow clouds gathered.

Two hours later, they returned.

"That was a wild goose chase," my son announced.

"Is that right?" I asked.  "What happened?"

"Five Guys was closed!"

I laughed.  "No way.  You're kidding!  How could they do that?  Didn't they know you needed a hamburger?"

Bubba scowled. "Even McDonald's was closed!"

I shook my head. This was serious. "So you didn't get a hamburger?"

"Yeah.  We got one. But we had to drive a million miles- all the way to Chili's!"
