Last Saturday, hubby and I decided to take a day trip and run to Gettysburg. We thought it might be nice to walk around and take some pictures. He’s a huge Civil War buff, so he likes to get up there whenever he can.
I thought you might like to see some of the pictures we took.
And then this happened:
The white Jeep SUV on the left is ours. That’s my shadow and hubby on the phone with police. We were headed home when a teenager who admittedly wasn’t paying attention slammed in to the back of us. Y’all she was on her phone the entire time we were waiting for the police (we had to call), dealing with the police (yes really, she was on the phone while the police were there), etc etc. So much so she ran her own phone down and had to then use her boyfriend’s phone to make more calls. I have no idea who she was talking to but I have a hunch she was probably on the phone while she was driving and wasn’t paying attention to traffic ahead. Awesome. We’re fine. Stiff, sore and tired, but fine. And our car has minor damage. I have never been so happy to have a Jeep in all my life.
The funniest part? One of the phone calls she made was to her dad (she was/is college age and still on daddy’s insurance) and when he asked her what kind of damage there was, she replied, “Well, I crunched up the headlights…” Understatement much? 😉
