Tanners apple orchard 1

Today we went to Tanners apple orchard located in Speer, Il. It is only about an hour and a half from the Quad Cities.

Here is a picture of the three girls in grandma's van getting ready to leave in the morning

At Tanners they have pony rides in the Kids area. The girls loved it. They rode on the ponies three times

Also throughout the orchard they have various cartoon characters with there head made out of pumpkins and gords. Here is a picture of Mickey and Minnie Mouse

My new "old" project car

Here is my new "old" car since the one I had got hit. This is a 97 honda civic two door. This car should do everything I need it to do, Which is getting me back and forth to work while using as little of gas as possible. This car gets Thirty if not more miles per gallon. It came with three sets of rims, one black, one stock, and the chrome ones on it.

My poor car

Alright, so I was sitting in my living room messing around on the computer at like 2:30 a.m. and I heard this loud screech and then bang(not like a gunshot but something hitting something).I looked outside and I see this white grand prix sitting next to my car with the driver looking around. I didn't really know what to do I wanted to run right out so he didn't run away but I had to let Jenn know what was going on. I ran upstairs and woke Jenn up and told her to call the cops and tell them somebody just hit my car. I went outside to confront the guy. He said sorry and he was looking at his cell phone. I wanted to stall him till the cops got there so I asked if he had insurance and he told me yeah. He gave me an insurance card which is apparently expired but is the same insurance co. he has. I memorized his license plate(just in case he ran) and went inside to write the info down. Inside Jenn was on the phone with the dispatcher giving her what little info she knew. I sat inside watching this guy until the cops came. When the cops came they gave him the sobriety test and he passed. He told the cops he had three drinks and that was at midnight. I am actually glad he wasn't drunk. He did seem very apologetic. He was only 21. Below are some of the pics that I took after the cops had done all of the investigative work.

This first pic is of my car with the front over the curb and the back off of it. When Jenn parked this it was parrallel with the curb. Kind of gives you an idea of how hard he hit me

More pics of how hard he hit me

This is the main damage he did. He must of hit my front first and then slid into the drivers door or something like that. It is pretty bad though

More pics of my car from the side

You can't see it in these pics but the spring is actually on the tire and the piece hanging down in the back of the tire is on it as well. It is pretty much inmovable. the tow truck driver who was very nice said he would come back and put it in my drive way on his way back from taking the guy and his car home. Hopefully he wasn't lying
