feeling pretty blessed

at 5am yesterday on his way to meet his carpool, Yogi slid on some black ice, did a 180, slid off the highway backwards, went down an embankment, into a ditch and wrapped Nelly(our work truck) around a huge scotch pine. the tree snapped and landed on the bed of the truck, crushing the bed and part of the roof. HE WALKED AWAY. the entire passenger side is completely destroyed, glad he was alone! the cab itself was so crushed he had belongings he could not remove from the truck at all before Nelly went off to FORD heaven. so much for the 2k we just put into her @@
RIP Nelly, old girl. you were good to us. thanks for the memories.

Thank goodness he is okay. How scary that must have been though. Will you be replacing Nelly?

I'm so happy to hear that Yogi is okay. Must have scared the hell out of him. This is exactly why I moved from New England to Southern California. I'm just happy he didn't get hurt. Looks like it's time for a new truck...

Vehicles can be replaced, people can't. Thank God he is OK.
