  • Bruised But Not Broken Wings

    First, thank's for the birthday wishes for Friday. It helped cheer up what had been a bad week.

    Jeanie got in a wreck on Monday when a big truck tried to cross three lanes of traffic and she stuck the nose of the Bird under the truck. Seems to be only cosmetic damage and the estimate came in today. Car will will be back on the road next week-end no doubt with the top down again.

    OH, and most importantly, Jeanie is fine. Air bags didn't deploy and she was only a bit stiff for two days. Lucky. Not quite how we wanted to celebrate my birthday and Mothers Day, but I'll take her being ok as a blessing and we'll move forward.

    Will need to be ordering a replacement TBN bade for the grill. Can't really ride around without that now can we!

    Glad to hear she is OK. Birds can be fixed (or replaced if necessary), but lives are priceless.
    So sorry to hear of the bad week. Chin up, young person!

      Wow! So glad Jeanie is okay. That had to shake her up quite a bit.

      Hope you're back to top down driving soon!

            Sounds like it could have been much worse. Glad it was one that could be walked away from. Hope you get the car back soon.

                    The Bird will be fine after repairs are completed, but I know it still hurts :(

                      Glad to hear Jeannie is okay, definitley could have been worse. However, I think we need to form a vigilante group and hunt this "driver" down... just sayin'....
