Friday on the way home from work. She is pretty sore but otherwise ok I think. She did go to Urgent Care right away to be checked over.

The damned Llumina came through with a few scuffs in the paint on the rear bumper cover and dented the license plates. The lady who hit her rolled her bumper under and the guy she was pushed into had his rear bumper cover knocked partway off.

This is the second rear end collision Lynn has had and STILL no damage to the car...

Wow I am sure she is sore! Tell her to take care and I hope she feels better soon! I am getting the feeling you kinda wish the car had more damage so you could total it out......? Funny how you would think these cars would fold right up and all you end up with is scratches basically.

Morning guys!
Jay, I hope your wife fells better. You should just leave the car on the RR tracks to get rid of it. LOL
Wow, I have got to do some reading. Been pretty busy past few days with yard work. I borrowed my brother-in-laws skidloader and went to work spreading dirt in the low spots and ruts in the yard (had to get rid of a pile of blk dirt from shed const.). Then I helped him roof his house (wow am I outta shape). I did not even get to sit down and watch the Vikes, but that isn't always bad. Well gotta go back to work, Later.

Have a good day Cory.

Anybody with free time in the middle of November is welcome to come down to Arizona and help with roofing the house. All the food and beverages and roof over your head(sort of) provided...

Boy it sounds like bad gas mileage is fairly common around your house. LOL

Howdy boys and girls. Beet harvest < CMK. Beets left the field and went to the plant. Only casualties are my sleep, two third axle tires, one alternator, lots of diesel fuel and one 200lb buck. Pics to follow later and the story if anyone is interested.
