They were looking for a motel, they booked, and were on a icy/snowy bridge when out of no where a Silverado shot out at them, and side swiped the doors, spun hit the bridge, bounced off the other side, then drove off... 5 folks testified they didn't see the silverado come from anwhere.... So I figure Drunk, no insurance, or undocumented future democratic voter.... And the read plate was obscured so they didn't even get a partial plate....

Anyways..... No Ticket was issued, as it wasn't Chris's fault he was driving, but Car was acting up?..... Chris's knee was sore, and I not feeling great had to fly out to sort out the damage and see if the relocation could continue.

Got the car to an alignment shop, it was out of alignment, but Chris said it was that way before the accident... Well it drives fine now, the Drivers side mirror was broken off, and I got a 3 inch convex mirror and 3m Taped it to the inside window, it was functional...just couldn't roll down the window. I also had to stop in Oregon, as it was Raining so hard that the seal on the door leaked on to my shoulder.. So we stopped at a BORG ( Big Orange Retail Giant Home Depot)and got some weather strip. Well unknown to us at the time, across the road from us a Car got swept off the parking lot and in to a creek, with some folks on board, and they hadn't found the car as this morning when I looked...

Yes as matter of fact, I have the Luck o'the Irish...everything I touch turns to fertilizer of the bovine variety.

Nice pics!

Funny, while you were driving to Portland, I had a guy riding shotgun in my van who's from Portland. Came to AZ for sunshine and... it was cloudy. :lol:

My buddy just emailed me that Mt Shasta is to get 8-10 inches of snow, Portland is being Deluged by rain, and Reno was having wild fires... I guess I didn't miss the window by much............ :)
