Emerald525 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 So Sirena and I moved 3 weeks ago to a new house just before the Covid shutdown. Both of us work in healthcare and are still going to work with some virtual mixed in. My clinic shut down so I have to go to a different clinic to work.  We woke up to this last Tuesday morning. đ±  Shout out to @wegotjs. He was coming over o out up a fence for us but I told him priorities changed and he was able to go to Home Depot set up a temporary mailbox and get us a quote for a new one !! This was greatly appreciated so I could field calls and take care of my patients.  Hell of a housewarming gift ! The owner of the car had many different âstoriesâ as to how this happen so I took lots of pictures.Â đ€š 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertareef Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Yikes! Â At least they didn't take out anything besides the mailbox. Â Looks a bit like a "Driving while Texting" experience to me.

It happened overnight. He left the scene. Came back in the afternoon.  The owner said he was sleeping when she came by.  Great area just have a mailbox on the end of the street now. As I walked up the street I realized many owners have reinforced ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am guessing it's a sign of the low curbs there but who know for sure.  Maybe some popular bars in the hood? Excited to see the new place when we are finally able to socialize again.  Maybe you could do a youtube walk through or something in the meantime đ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was going fast and was clearly intoxicated.  You will see the place soon enough. It is awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
