Crash


February 24th...

Keith was awakened by a loud bang around 4am. He looked out the windows... didn't see anything so he went back to bed. Then he got up at 5am to go to the farm to do chores and when he got on the road he saw something out in the field in front of our place. It was a car on its hood. Scary! He ran out to see if anyone injured (or worse) but there was no one to be found. He called the Sherriff and they came to investigate.

The kids were excited to see a police car on the road...

Once it got lighter, I went out and took pictures...

Jared was dressed and out the door 15 minutes early.
He just had to get out there and check out the action.
The black thing in the ditch is our mailbox...

The loud bang that Keith heard was our mailbox and 6×6 solid wood post being hit at high speed.
It ripped part of the guy's bumper off.
The tow truck showed up right before I left for work...

The ditch was littered with parts from the car.
You can see the path of the car... barely missed the power pole.

The view from the other end. The roads had a little snow on them but they weren't that slippery. Just another case of careless driving. Thankfully, no one was injured.
