We got a tree trimmed in our backyard yesterday and...

the tree company's truck was parked in front of our house with the big wood grinder/chipper thing. I'm inside with DD watching them cut the tree from the kitchen and all of a sudden we hear a giant BOOM....

A teenager driving (or should I say speeding) down my road hit the wood chipper!!!!! Thank goodness he was ok. Looks like he just clipped it, but he must have been going pretty fast bc the car went backwards about 10 feet and then turned perpendicular to the road. Axel bent, car totaled.

So between the sound of the actual wood grinder, the police cars, the ambulance, etc at 8 am in the morning, I am sure the neigbors love us. Chat Icon

I'm guessing the meatball was occupied elsewhere... probably a phone.
