How did a car accident turn into a trip to the Island for me?

Brian was on his way to Parksville this morning and unfortunately rear ended another vehicle. Everyone is ok... the car, not so much. So now that my car is the only one we have out of 3 that is operational... haha... I will be going to Parksville for the weekend with Brian! Yippie, my first work trip with Brian. And, I am going to go visit Ian, Katie and baby Aaron!
