As we were enjoying our vacation at Bear Lake, we received an early morning call on New Years Day. The Landlord of the home behind us was on the other line. She let us know that there had been accident at 4:00 am. A truck with five drunk teenagers hit our fence, shed, neighbors shed, fence, and another neighbors fence. She sent us this picture. We were shocked at the damage. It looked like a tornado had hit our backyard. Our shed was FULL of outdoor stuff (camping gear, a wheelbarrow, lawnmower, shovels, rakes, fertilizer, paint, ect). All of our stuff was scattered through our neighbors yard. Wet red paint was on everything. We were out of town and could not really help clean up, but we did call some members of the ward to come help. We were glad to not have our kids ear the horrible crash, it was bad enough to see it when we got home, and at that time it had all been cleaned up. The renters behind us were so nice. They made a pile of our stuff so that we could make an insurance claim. Through various conversations with them we came to realize that they were members of our church, but were not currently active. We wer so glad to have such wonderful people as neighbors, they made a hard situation so much easier by their kindness. We were able to make a claim and are in the process of getting everything replaced. We have a new shed and fence! Jeff and Dallin made some nice shelfs inside the shed and we have been able to organize everything inside so much beter than it was.
