A death in the Family.. (or it Seems)

Today we had a very interesting day.  We woke up at 5:00 am to go scout for deer.  To make a long and sad story short, we were on our way home and came around a blind corner when another truck came around that same corner and hit us head on.  We both slammed on our brakes and tried to move but we still hit each other on the front left corners.  Luckily no one was hurt.  We called the police and both vehicles had to be towed.  The transmission, the radiator, and the lift all broke on the Jeep.  We found the transfer case on the ground, our front left tire was sliced and the Jeep would not go into gear! Yikes!  We sure love that Jeep!  Colby has spent so much time on it and he has put so much work into it, that it was depressing to see it broken.  
Here is a picture of the jeep before the accident.

Poor Colby... he loved that jeep. But we're so glad you're both ok! Stupid unpaved roads in Idaho!
