Yesterday would have been uneventful except for one little thing.
We got into a car accident while exiting Grandpa's Grill after we had breakfast.
I was riding in the back seat in Greg Lucier's Subaru Tribeca with his brother Larry in the front passenger seat. We were exiting the parking lot when a pick up truck was driving in front of us in the street. Greg went to apply the brakes and his foot (he was wearing sandals) slipped off the brake pedal and we hit the truck.

There were no injuries to either party. The Subaru was drivable, although the plastic front end was knocked off. One part was rubbing on the driver's side front tire. I went to a nearby stationery store and bought a package of bungie cords to tie up some loose parts. After doing so, we were able to drive it back to Jamestown. We put the front end in back of the Subaru. It was basically one big piece and light in weight.
Before leaving, we filed a report with the Gallup Police Department and waited for Greg's wife Marlo to arrive. Larry's dog Niko and I rode back to Jamestown with her.
Funny thing, a few things came back to me from my days as an insurance adjuster while we were talking to the police officer.
