Fortunately, a little alone time for a Vernon couple didn't turn tragic.
Saturday night at around 7:30 pm, RCMP received a call from a man that he and his wife had gotten stuck on a rural service road east of Kelowna.
The man stated that his cellphone was about to die and they were extremely cold.
Officers responded by walking about a kilometre, finding the couple in the vehicle and then hiked back with them to safety.
