Well on Saturday night(a week ago) at 10:45 I was on my phone with my dad talking about his colts. We were talking and I responded to him then didn’t hear anything until I heard what sounded like a lot of shit rattling and no answer on the other end. I immediately called my mom and said I think Dad has been in a wreck. I knew where he was coming from but didn’t know exactly where he was. Called a friend of his too that was also at the ranch.

He doesn’t fully remember what happened, but remembers seeing a semi and just of wind then a guardrail. We know the truck flipped and rolled.

Fortunately he was alive, but beat all to hell. He did break his neck, but is able to walk. He’s getting discharged from the hospital today.

Thanks guys. We are all very thankful! Hate losing the truck, but glad he here to buy another one.

But damn! It was a mint 2005 with only 100,000 miles
