I thought I would show you the damage done to our Rav4...notice the wheel cover is split/cracked...the photos are probably best if enlarged.
There is a good little dent beside the tire....
The bumper is dented in...
This don't look too good either....
The back does not open...we both felt that the tire being mounted there absorbed a lot of the shock and maybe kept us from getting seriously injured.
I did wonder last night if I was going to wake up hurting this morn, but did not feel any worse for wear. I am thankful for that.

Downtown Fashions
I cannot remember the rest of this sign, but it was seen in Newnan, Georgia....and it just struck my funnybone. The wig part. Just something about seeing that followed by prom dresses...just who is going to the prom?
By the way, it is Newnan, not Newman as I originally thought. I misread the sign...
************
We got up and headed to Terre Haute this morn, originally to go by the book store but decided to go to Hobby Lobby first. We had left there and were sitting at a stoplight and we were rear ended...a pretty good hit. We had our seat belts on...I did not notice at first but stuff, mainly change, had flew out of the cubbyhole; I had a can of Coke and some of it had splattered out.
We at least walked away from it....
Edited to add:
I told Roger other than the first three or four years of our marriage, I don't think we have had a single vehicle that hasn't been involved in at least one wreck...some more than one. And only one was my fault.
It is not even funny. I don't even think I can remember all of them...off the top of my head I can remember nine. One of them don't count in ways...someone hit us from behind but it was so minor we could not see any damage so we all just went on.
On the other hand, we had a Dodge minivan that seemed to have a bull's eye on it. We had had it 6 months when Roger was coming home from work...down a 4 lane highway...55mph and this old man got confused at a stoplight and turned in front of him. The old man was hurt...
We got t-boned in it...no one hurt. But both it and the one above really did a lot of damage to the van.
I was going to pick up my daughter at school and a girl pulled out in front of me...I was right at the cross street and even though I was only going 25-30 mph, I couldn't stop when the teenager pulled out in front of me. But it didn't hurt the van too much nor me at all...
Then Roger had it at work and someone went to pull through a parking space and pulled into him. It was one of the guys I didn't know. But thankfully, Roger had a buddy with him...the guy that hit him started to claim it wasn't his fault and Roger reminded him he had a witness.
I feel like I am forgetting something that happened with the van....but I think 4 accidents is a lot for one vehicle.
I don't think the rest of our families combined has been involved in this many wrecks.
