Early Morning Happenings...

if you read the local paper The Bellingham Herald, you would've heard about us this morning. Well, technically there was no mention that this happened in our front yard, but that's where the whole thing took place.

I got up after my alarm went off around 6 AM to get ready for my 7 AM Boot camp class at the gym. When I walked to the bathroom I saw someone parked in front of our driveway gate who's car I did not recognize. No biggie, it's happened before, someone pulls over to talk on the cell phone or to take some picture of the eagles in the trees by the river behind our house... But this time it was a little different. Upon closer investigation I found this in our front yard:

What the heck????
I guess someone was driving a bit too fast, or was asleep at the wheel, cause this darn truck just slid right off the road, into the field in front of our house. Luckily no one was hurt. Just imagine if this guy would've missed the corner by a few less feet, he would've ended up taking out our little rental house where Ryan was sleeping. Pretty scary!

When I got home from work at around 5 PM this is what I found:

They are just finished unloading all the lumber that was in the back and have some huge tow trucks trying to pull it out of the field. Looks like it's back on it's wheels now and they are trying to load it onto a trailer.
