Good Evening,

David, my primary care physician told me that Pepcid is much better for you than taking Tums ! Too much calcium in Tums supposedly!

Thanks. He actually rattled off a few, Tums, pepto, Prilosec, etc and I said we had Tums.

Happy Anniversary Dennis. Glad son is healing.

Happy Anniversary Dennis. Glad son is healing.

Thanks
I can’t sleep. I just keep going over the pictures of the accident and how they don’t match the story I got told by the other party and the cop.
Not sure what to do.
Wishes id of gotten better pics of the trailer. It was pretty big for being single axle. And how did it get detached from the tow vehicle? Were there even chains on it? Was the load secured? Scaffolding came off when the trailer rolled. I don’t know where the pickup truck was.
Most trailers are wider than the tow vehicle. His truck could have been in the lane and the trailer tires on the line.
Need to turn car plates into DMV. I had just renewed 2 yr registration, might get half back.
At the hospital they collected urine sample. I’m assuming they will test him. What about the other guy?

Things to consider at 4 am.
Hate to think what’s going thru son’s head.

Coffee has finished brewing. 31° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 46 with chance of snow and rain. Got second coat of sealer on bench top. Made a bracket to hold up top link while ROP is in lowered position. Today I have a mess to clean up in shop. Grocery shopping first.

Buckeye, hope you get accident concerns straightened out.

Everyone stay well and safe.

Good Morning All.

Dennis,
There are insurance investigators. We were fortunate in that my neighbor across the street was one and he went to scene with me. Lots of pics. And the vehicles. Also had one of his attorney friends visit Sophie in the hospital.

As for testing, I thought they would, but no. Police never requested and we weren’t allowed to use the hospital test. Do be careful, citing your son could hurt insurance wise as to responsibility. Don’t car have some sort of blackbox thingy these days? You might consider getting attorney.

good morning all
what a rainstorm this has been, 4.10 showing on gauge this morning.
apparently a little more this afternoon, then finally a slow warming up and I see a 70 in the forecast.

Dennis, sorry for this headache. If the other guy was hurt at all, I'd definitely get counsel as David suggested.
Guys driving work vehicles don't always tell the truth as to what happened so they don't get fired. And we have all moved over for
trailers coming around a turn riding the middle line. Few lights on trailer, no wonder your son didn't see what was happening.
Ultimately you may never know. This is why you need a dash cam; suggest you give one to your son.
I don't leave home without it for just this reason.

having spent more than 20 years in insurance, this is sadly a matter of who is telling the truth.
And who can prove what the truth is...which is why dash cams are so important.
You simply cannot rely on others to tell the truth.

End of day all that matters is Dennis' son fully recovers and is not mentally messed up from this.
I put my 58 Chevy on the roof at age 16; what a lesson that taught me.
so maybe you can make some lemonade out of lemons

woke up with bad headache, and groan, another molar that is unhappy. Probably another
root canal. Pretty soon I think they all will have been done. 1700 bucks simply vaporizes...

34 going to 57, and rain coming again. Can see the moon and stars right now, at least.

Happy Anniversary to BEF and wife! Sorry the accident is upending your plans. Continued prayers for your family.

Mostly, glad you are healing and can take a shower again.

3 coffees roasted and a hike between rain showers.
