Oh, well, umm...

Well my trusty driver this morning was driving slow watching the road and we were slowly cruising to work, since it snowed a few inches in the night. I was taking pictures of things out the window, big barns, snow covered trees, and the snow in general! All of the sudden I hear, Oh *#!^! I look up to find a dark green durango type vehicle, out of control in front of us, spinning this way, spinning that way. ("good news, we were stopped!"). The vehicle then begins spin toward the ditch, it continues to gain speed as it is going toward the ditch, it enters the ditch back bumper first, spinning at one point the back end came off the ground and I thought for sure it was going to roll, but it didn't the dark green spinning machine stayed on all 4 tires. Then the amazing part came, he busted off a road sign slicker than snot. Off went he mirror, down went the sign, then slowly the suv came to a stop. (i think do we ask if he is okay)nope, we didn't have time, because the suv started out of the ditch, it had to be a man, he was driving out. He didn't make it the first time, so he backed up and tried again. After many spinning tires, and the urge not to give up, he drove up out the ditch and we proceeded in traffic!! It was amazing yet shocking!!
I will tell you we then proceeded to slow down even more and were a little late to school.
Happy Snowy Friday!!!!
