As of yesterday it's almost all melted.
I was deliverying a rental car about 200 miles east of town and ran into a blizzard about 3 weeks ago.
The visibility was bad and suddenly I saw all the cars stopped in the freeway in front of me...I knew I couldn't stop in time so I had to shoot the gap between 2 cars and plummet into the median.
The snow was up to my door and I had to sit there for 2 hours before they pulled me out.
It was a big deal...cars off the road, a handful of wrecks, and emergency and tow vehicles all over the place.
I got lucky and managed to avoid damage and injury.
I'm glad spring is here.
I'm glad you're okay.
We bought a little Chevy Spark last May to run around the community in and about a month after we got it, a deer decided to try and jump over it, and we had to replace the hood.
The deer did $3700 worth of damage.
Then in January my husband was sitting at a stop sign and one of the community snow plows backed into him.
That is $7,000 worth of damage.
We haven't even had the car for a year and the hood has been replaced twice.
Luckily our insurance has not gone up.
The first time was 'animal vandalism' and the second time, the community paid.
