Awake with a BANG
We were woken up soon after falling asleep with a loud bang a little over and hour and a half ago. A pickup came across the road and took out the telephone pole and then hit our cement front porch. He hit it hard enough to knock off a porch post and shove the cement about an inch.
I plan to take pictures of the damage in the morning light but here is what it looked like

o_o that's insane
Drunk driver? or did someone fall asleep at the wheel?
@mommachatter - he kept repeating "it's a work truck, it's a work truck" and then it was "just take me to jail" just take me to jail"
Jeez! That's worse than my car looked after crashing into a fence last year! It's amazing the guy walked away from it. Sounds like he needs to have his head checked, though. Possible concussion.
Did it scare the kids?
@ZombieMom_Speaks - well he broke the telephone pole to pieces and nailed the concret porch really hard. It really scared W(10) and grandma, but grandma handled it better then I would have expected
If you hear any more about the drivers condition (DWI,DUI,TEXTING,ASLEEP) I would love to hear "The rest of the story..."
Really glad you all are okay. (( hugs))
Thanks for posting the pictures too. Eased my mind to talk to you too.
@YouToMe - I probably sounded like shit when we talked. I was totally shaking and have no clue what i said. I think i was in shock last night
@Kristenmomof3 - Awww(( hugs)). You were entitled. It was understandable. Im glad icould be there.
Wow!!! That's crazy! Glad everyone is ok. Hope the porch can be centered again. I kind of feel sorry for the guy that's gotta explain to his boss what happened.
@Kristenmomof3 - sounds like a drunk to me.
i told you that you needed to remove that "drive thru" sign from the porch . lol
glad no one was seriously hurt
@buddy71 - lol @ drive thru
