And the guardrail won...

We put up a good fight, but the guardrail was the clear winner. Poor little "Dora the Explorer" will probably be dismantled and sold. She will be missed... I've decided that our big car seats should be more like infant car seats. Jordan seems to have been very well protected, while I was thrown around the front seat like a rag doll. Anyway, the pictures of the vehicle were posted earlier by Brett, so here is the guardrail.
It's hard to get an idea from the pictures how long the area of destruction really was, but it can give you an idea. I'm not sure how many times we actually hit this thing because it all happened so fast. We were just really lucky that we didn't get hurt worse than we did and that lots of people stopped to help. I'm also very thankful to the Boy Scout organization employees who let Jordan and I wait in their car so that we didn't have to stand out in the rain. They then gave us a ride to Tulsa so that we could get Jordan to her doctor's appointment. I just hope we never have to go through something like that again.
