OK, here's the scoop:
My driveway is not wide enough to park my pickup and my work van side-by-side (at least not be able to open the doors on one or the other). So I must park bumper - to - bumper. This means if I want to drive the vehicle parked further in, I gotta pull the other out and jockey them around.
Well, this morning, I needed to pull the van out so I could use my pickup. As I was doing so, this happened:
I apologize for the time stamps not matching, but I gave up trying to keep them in synch.
I hate when chit like this happens, but in retrospect it really isn't all that bad. A little cosmetic damage to the front of the van (nothing mechanical, so I can live with it), and a busted tail light on the truck.
Called a local junkyard, they have a replacement for 35 clams.
If I didn't need to pull forward to line the van up, my house would have been hit. Been a little slower, and the side of the van would have taken the hit possibly rendering the doors inoperable.
Just a Friday chuckle for ya!
