Adventures

My friend, Diana came out for a visit and I thought it would be fun to take the 4 wheelers out with her and Diesel. We really enjoyed ourselves for about an hour and a half and then...lets just say...a bit of a disaster. Diana had Diesel riding with her and tackled a hill that in hindsight she probably shouldn't have :) i came around a bend, heard diesel screaming my name and saw a 4 wheeler tumbling down an enormous hill at me...i jumped off my 4 wheeler and managed to jump into a tree to get out of the way. the machines took a beating as did diana and diesel. it's a long story, but they ended up tipping backwards and it rolled over the top of them before tumbling down. everything that followed was nothing more than the hand of the Lord. we were miles away from the parking and had seen 2 people the whole day and within 2 minutes of it happening some strangers happened upon us...long story short, we were watched over and protected that day. diesel came away with stitches and diana with a TON of bruises and scrapes as well as an almost broken nose...the machines have quite a bit of minor damage, but nothing too serious. if you had seen what i saw you would wonder how they are even running. we were blessed that day...we all felt it and we are all thankful for it. all of these pics were taken before, obviously, and then we had to document the trip to the instacare :)
This was how her helmet was pretty much all day...i was dying
