Macon Marauder
Voice of Cold Hard Reason
But I ain't complaining! First of all: My wife and kids are fine. That's the most important thing, of course. Thank God.
On the way to school this morning my wife ran off the road and rolled our Kia Sedona down a 50 ft. embankment. The only part of the van's body not bent is the rear hatch.
The roof is crushed in front - along with the windshield, the hood is crushed, both front doors are mangled and the glass is busted out, the side mirrors broke off, the sliding doors are bent along with both quarter panels. And the right front tire blew out and is nearly off the rim.
The amazing thing is that even with all that damage, they were able to drive the van out of the ravine and up to street level so it could be loaded onto a roll-back. More amazing is that no one was injured - at all!
Maybe not a miracle. Could be just a really tough little mini van. But I believe that God had his hand on my little family this morning. And I am so thankful!
The Marauder is our other family car. I handed my wife the keys and told her to go ahead and take the kids to school while I took care of the mess. And I told her, "You're gonna be driving the Marauder a while, Babe. Take good care of her."
So I'm back in my little red 'Stang until we can replace the Kia. It ain't no Marauder - but I'm not complaining!
