Well all I have to say is thank god you are okay nancy. Girl there are other ways of getting your first post. Yes the weather has been darn cold the last couple of days. For those that are not aware the grumpster and Nancy only live approx 1/2 hr north east of me. The highway around here is not in that type of shape so far. I however am on the road daily at 5:00 AM. Thanks for the warning grumpy. Well nancy just sit back in the shanty and enjoy a nice glass of wine or two. Hopefully you do not wake up tommorrow with a sore back or neck. Take care and let the grumpster baby you for a few days.

Thank god your alright Nancy that musta been a hell of a scary ride :oI'm just glad you are o k and I know Grump will take very good care of you rest up there girl!

My golly, Nancy, I'm glad you walked away from that!  I see the driver's front window is cracked, hope that wasn't from any part of you, that would hurt!  I also suspect you're going to be sore for a while, but hopefully, you'll be up to putting in your first post soon.  We'll be waiting for it!  All the best, Allen.

Well thank god she's alright Grumpy . So now I can cuss and say " when are them women drivers gonna learn that pedal down doesn't mean to the floor " . Speed demons they are . LOL Only reason to go fast anywhere is to make the beer store before she closes . LOL
  Tell Mountain Mama it's just a chunk of metal and they make more where that one came from .

WOW!  Glad to hear everyone is OK!!  Very lucky!  I was a passenger in a roll-over 12 years ago and still have aches, pains and plenty of scars to remind me of it.  You take care Mountain Mama and rest up and keep those wheels under ya from now on!

i will pass on the kind words...Mountain Mama is currently up at the hospital getting precautionary x-rays, a shot of demerol...Sawbones saw her this morning and not too overly concerned with her vertigo...figures they can give her head a shake and reposition the crystals for regaining her balance...some pretty nasty bruises as expected....the demerol will ease that....worst case is an overnighter there....will know after lunch....Grump

Holly Molly! Glad she's alright. Look's liket that thing has a five star in the roll over catagory.

First I'm glad she's okay as we are heading into that season here and I'll be getting lots of calls soon from my clients crashing their cars as car insurance is my life, so to speak.  It pays the bills and is what I do all day, every day.  Accidents suck.

Only reason to go fast anywhere is to make the beer store before she closes . LOL

Secondly trapperdirk is absolutely right.  We all need to slow down when it's slippery out unless we are making a last minute run to the local bevy center.  If you have only 5 minutes to make it before closing you must drive fast and take chances.     A night at home with "she the one who must be obeyed" and no beer would be unacceptable.

Glad to hear that Mtnmama is alright , i get to see that type of accident all too often , being a term. mgr for a towing co. and still do some driving when necessary . Hope she feels better from all those aches and pains and sore muscles from the accident . Remember vehicles can be replaced - lives can't !

Lol Bw Glad to hear your alright Mountain momma !!!

Good to hear from you Mountain Momma but I see the Grump is cheating and getting you to post under his name to get his ratings up higher faster . LOL . It would be nice if you gave us all the dirt on our friend the Grumpy Moe because it's going to be a long winter and we need many things to tease him about on Iceshanty and here . LOL
  Take care Momma and keep the Grump behaving . LOL
