someone lives here?

big truck whoops

My parents I and were driving down a a small highway east of Zion near Coral Sand Dunes Park and we saw an orange warning sign that read, "wreck ahead." On the other side of the road, we saw the above pile. I got out and took a closer look.



It was from a vegetable truck that slid off the road. Red peppers, yellow peppers, and cucumbers, from left to right on the top image. Since it was below/near freezing, everything was in perfect shape. I might have taken some were I in a position to use them. Ingredients for a good salad, I think.


You can actually see the truck trailer's imprint in the snow from where it lodged itself after sliding off the road. Equally as strange as a pile of pristine vegetables, the cleanup crew left the mangled front end of the eighteen-wheeler. Given the state of the twisted metal, I'd be surprised if the driver walked away from this one. There's always divine providence, I guess.
