Ejected from vehicle (seatbelts?), and police believe that alcohol was a factor. Sometimes we are our own worst enemies.  :(

I hope that they both make it out okay.

I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

Hmmmmm,

They must have turfed right behind us.  I don't recall seeing a Jeep coming in, but I do recall quite a few drunken idiots at the campground and in a rather large and a rather small Chev.  Those EMS guys were hauling arse when they went by me, even the big Diesel unit they run was roaring like a runaway freight.

Seems like Waip is becoming what McLean was.

People annoy me.............I think I will build a rocketship and move to mars..........I bet the wheeling is good there.

It seems like the one we saw on Saturday early Morning is a different one ... :o It was a Jimmy near Bar-C ranch just past Richards Rd.

That's a second one and I beleive one of the 2 ladies didn't make it (not 100% for sure).  :'(
