Jon's (not so much) fun adventure

At the end of January, Jon had his annual car accident. Just kidding, but in the last 4 years, he has had 3 January wrecks! This was by far the worst. On a Friday night, I was at work, the girls were at my mom and dad's, and Jon was on his way home. He was on a two-lane, in a no-passing zone. Someone, going the opposite direction, decided to pass the car in front of them. They got in Jon's lane--headed for a head-on collision. Jon had to swerve off the road to keep from getting hit, and ended up plowing into an abandoned car on the side of the road. Of course, the person who caused the accident didn't stop, but thankfully Jon wasn't hurt--nothing that a chiropractor can't work on, anyway! The man whose yard was housing the abandoned car happened to be outside when it happened, so we had a witness who was able to corroborate Jon's story for the police. Jon called me, and I went to the accident site to pick him up, and we watched them tow his car away. We have an awesome insurance company (GO NATIONWIDE!) who covered our rental completely until the claim was closed, paid off the car (IN FULL!!!!!) and they were really great to work with. We are really blessed that Jon wasn't hurt, and that the girls weren't with him that night.
I can't stand looking at these pictures--he really could have been hurt worse!
