Parking Lot Troubles

I know to allow extra time to find parking when I go to this location. BUT I figured (and here’s where I went wrong) that it had poured the day before, it was going to be a mud pit, and it was getting late in the day….surely, it wouldn’t be a problem to find parking. In fact, I figured that I could get close parking. WRONG! I got there a few minutes early only to find herds and herds of cars circling to find parking. I tried to call the client to let her know I was looking for parking and she didn’t answer. I was getting panicky. After 15 minutes I finally had a spot (and this was only because someone walked to their car that was right where I was stuck in an unmoving line. I ran up to where we were meeting but I didn’t see anyone that looked like they were there for a photo shoot. Then the mother of the client that had been putting this together came up to me. She said that there were 3 cars of people in the family that were all circling the parking lot for spaces! It was crazy. We started about 35 minutes later than we had planned but ended up having just enough time to get all the pictures done. Whew!! You know what they say about assuming. That will teach me!
