Yesterday we make the long drive up to Ogden to get our stuff out of what is left of our little truck. For those who did not hear the story, Robert was driving back to Oregon after April's wedding and hit an icy patch on the freeway. The truck spun twice before hitting one of those large, green "Exit in 1/2 mile" type signs. As you can see, it desimated our little pickup.
And thankfully, the truck was between Robert and the sign, so he was not hurt at all. Walked away with no cuts, bruises or worse injuries. And, Robert didn't hit anyone else or cause anyone else to wreck, although there were many other accidents on that strip of freeway that day.
Also thankfully, we had just paid for our auto insurance that week AND, I had been trying to convince Robert that we didn't need to keep paying for comprehensive insurance, now that Jacob was on his mission. Had we not paid the insurance right away and had we not continued our full coverage, we would have had to be out all that money we just spent on the truck. But, the truck was valued at nearly the same price we paid for it over a year ago!
Goodbye little truck! We have loved having you!! :(
