KKK Leave Marion, Trail Blazer Arrives

The three K’s – Kristi, Kale, and Kace – who have been here since Sunday left about 12:15 p.m. today. The vehicle was packed with Christmas presents and everything they brought with them. Kale and Kace should take their afternoon naps on the two hour trip back to their house. Life in the fast lane with two little boys caught up with Henri. He fell asleep in his recliner at 7:00 last night and awakened at 9:15 this morning – 14 hours later! David and Jon arrived about 12:45 p.m. to go to the Chevrolet dealership to meet the tow trailer with the Trail Blazer. After talking to a Mattoon body shop person who said the vehicle could be repaired, Jon decided to have it towed to Marion. I wanted to go with them to take pictures, but Jon said he would do that. I went anyway, but honored Jon’s request not to talk to Bill, the tow truck driver, or anyone else. The boys usually prefer that Ginger not get involved. They called later when they locked themselves out of Henri’s truck and didn’t have an extra set of keys. It was all right that I got involved to bring the keys! The verdict is in. The Trail Blazer is going to stay at the Chevy dealer. The body shop people say it is not totaled, but the insurance adjuster still has to look at it. Jon will rent a car, go back to Rochester on Thursday, and then we’ll figure out how to get the Trail Blazer to Minnesota after it is fixed. All in a day’s work!

  1. One busy day for everyone. I'm sure Kristi and the boys enjoyed their time with Grandma and Grandpa. Kale and Kace are a couple of cuties. It sounds like everything is under control with the Trail Blazer------it's just a pain in the neck that Jon has to deal with all of that. A busy Christmas week for the Heinle household.
