Jon lost control on a gravel road last night and the car ended up in a ditch on its side. Because it’s a Volvo (and those suckers are built like tanks), Jon walked away with only some minor scrapes and bruises. Sable (our Volvo) on the other hand, is possibly totalled. Her windshield is cracked, the rear windshield shattered, the frame is bent a bit, and the right mirror is gone. We are praying really hard that she can be salvaged but people (in an effort to make us feel better that has royally backfired) have told us that she’s probably totalled and to get a new car.

We are kind of attached to Sable, so keep us in prayer that we can get through the insurance mess. We thankfully have temporary wheels as a parishioner had an extra car. (Reason # 34564 that I love Minnesota: people actually *HELP* others out instead of saying “that’s nice” and going to play frisbee golf instead of helping.)
