Gah! Well, I'm glad nobody's hurt, at least. Let your possessions take the hit for you. Better than getting hit yourself.

Ford Explorer with a big bike rack on the back. I'm going to have it towed to Subaru specialty shop to inspect the suspension, then to body shop. Totally sucks. Driver side door and front fender, passenger rear quarter, and under the door, and 2 rims. He really did a number on my car. I'm probably going to have to have it in the shop, have my brother pick it up when done, and fly back from Boise and pick it up, or drive back out with the car hauler. Totally sucks.

In front of the next door neighbor's house.

So heartbreaking. My car was perfect.

It is the black explorer in the driveway behind on the right.

I do have some good news. I got the second POD, and hired safe movers to put my 820lb. Gun safe in it, and movers to pack and load the rest of the house, so now I can just rest. We already decided we are hiring guys at the other end to unload both PODS. I really hurt myself packing and loading the first one.

Nice night for a cocktail.

Good plan on hiring some help -
