Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
Had a strange weekend, thought I would share...
Went to northern MI with my son and a friend of mine to meet my brother-inlaw, his cousin and kids to snowmobile for the weekend. .
About 1pm Saturday afternoon, my son and I are running through a field of fresh snow and his a log and the sled shot up into the air. Threw my son off the back and he landed face first in the snow. When I looked back, all I saw was the empty sled my nephew had been riding (he had hit the same bump and got thrown as well) run over my son...
We got him to a local store about 1/2 mile away and within minutes had several EMTs and two ambulances there on the scene. He spent two + hours on a back board and overnight in the hospital. Came out with a broken collar bone and first rib and a bruised lung... .
So you think that would be bad enough right... but wait there is more. .
On Sunday we got back to camp from the hospital and I took my truck and trailer to go and pick up my sleds where I left them the day before. . On the way there, I hit a patch of ice and slid off a road and into a tree. . Only going 25-30mph. barely any impact it seemed, but the tree was only about 9" in diameter and acted like a knife. It hit the passenger side front suspension and moved that tire back to the 3500 logo... Has to be over $10k in damage easy.
Had to walk several miles to get help, and ended up getting the truck towed away...
So you would think that would be bad enough right... . but wait there is more. .
My wife's cousin loaned me his truck to pull my trailer home and get my son home. About 20 miles from home Sunday night we hit a large deer. . Fortunately the truck was drivable, but probably caused several thousand $$ in cosmetic damage. .
We finally got home and I don't really feel like driving for some reason. .
they say bad things come in threes... I hope I am done for a while. .

Any more fun and you might end up buried here.
