Tale of woe and triumph.....

[JP Heintzman]

Those who have kids will know my pain.......ha ha ha.



Got home from a year in Korea on 4 Dec 08, ......

son totals Dad's prize Toyota 4wd truck on 13 Dec:angry:.......

daughter wrecks car to the tune of $5,500.00 on 20 Dec:blink:..........

tranny goes out on family van on 23 Dec:wacko:........



Daddy buys a truck to console himself on 7 Jan 09......ha ha ha!

God kept both my babies (19 and 20, respectively) safe and they each walked away (along with the other drivers), only my son had a scuff on his knuckles and left arm, that was it. What can ya do but keep on smilin' and go fishin', eh. At least my boat is still one piece! Ya'll be good.....

Fatrap,



I'm still searching for the color, it's a dark blue, but I don't know if it's midnight or royal. I think I'll have to research the VIN to find out so I can get a vial of touch-up paint.
