      TominMo,Hope you can make it to the Nov. 23rd meet! No worries i'll be there in the Gasshog, going to meet up with Fred in Macon and have us a small convoy 10-4.

      jbibb1,looking forward to Hermann on the 23rd, ya me to it was a good time with good people, good food and wine. I don't think we will have to worry about it being to hot, probably need a sweat shirt this year.

          Hey haven't heard from you since the Iowa Meet, what do you need off the wreck.

            Sorry to hear about the loss of your Festiva. Glad you are both OK. As you may recall almost the exact same thing happened to my wife and I last
            October. In our case the stop sign runner pulled out in front of us and we hit her and her car then hit another. I've hear that most auto accidents
            happen pretty close to home. I hope the young lady had insurance and you will be able to recover enough to get a good replacement. At least you
            do have lots more spare parts now (if you buy the car back from the insco). Only bodily harm in our accident was that the wife had seat belt bruises. The adjuster who brought us the check for the damage claim told us the company would pay her a few hundred for that but we decided to wait at least a year to make sure there were no other complications before filing that claim and signing a release. The year has passed so I guess we will do that now.

            Does Iowa have no-fault laws? Hope you and your wife have no complications, all goes well with your insurance claim and you get back in a Festiva soon.

                    TominMo, That's why I moved..... Oh man lol

                    mystro, how big is your shop, we can turn up the heat and have a Freezze your ball joints off meet.

                    Thanks for your thoughts Jess at this point the wife has a sore knee with seat belt burns on her neck and I have what looks to be a good hicky on the left side of my neck, ya know i'm not sure about the no fault comment, she does have insurance and I filed a claim with her company yesterday so my fingers are crossed.

                      How did you get the hickey on the left side? Did you let her drive?

                      But more to the point, I hope you get some good bux from the ins. co. Have the injuries been seen by a doctor, for documentation purposes at least?

                          If you don't see a doctor at least be sure to take photos of the bruises.

                            Thanks guys for the thoughts, the wife and I both were in the clinic today to get a check up, just some deep bruising, the Doc is worried about a blood clot in the wifes leg so she is now on some type of blood thinner. He checked the seatbelt rash aka Hicky, said it looked fine, so I told the wife she did a good job, she just rolled her eyes.
