Oh Man! I just can't believe what just happened!

[Ole Greenie]

So I was strolling through the parking lot of the local library on my way to the drive-thru book drop box. You see, the wife had asked me to PLEASE take these books back because if they don't get dropped off today, we would incur a late fee!

Not wishing to deter such a simple request, and thinking this would be a perfect time to drive my "mistress" with clear, nice weather and all, I cranked her up and headed out on my latest mission.

Well, I pull into the parking lot, realizing that this long parking lot was half empty, save for those parked nearest the entrance. I made my way through the parking lot enroute to the drop box when out of the corner of my eye I see a big black SUV backing a bit too quickly out of their parking space to stop!

"Oh SH**" spewed from my mouth just as the new Tahoe's reese hitch slammed into the front right corner of Ole Greenie puncturing the radiator and making wrinkles of the grill, radiator support, and right fender. The fender impacted the door which impacted the cab behind the door.

I have NEVER displayed SO MUCH GRACE and understanding toward the driver of the Tahoe. Realizing that she had a 3 year old girl in the back seat, I began to pear inside the back rear window of her truck to see if she was OK (I'm a healthcare professional). It was then I realized that I could not see inside the Tahoe!

Anyway, things are working out due in large part to her insurance company (State Farm) who is exemplary. They have agreed to repair Ole Greenie so I should have her back in a few more weeks.
