Dang. Glad he is OK. But there goes a whole season of hard work and investment. Then he gets to fix/replace truck.
Best wishes sent to him.
Wow, how did it happen? Collision, mechanical failure?
I have not ask my .youngest son stays in contact with them My son And one of the farmers sons went to school together and are good pals
I will have to ask the photo I posted was from the newspaper
The one photo our son sent by text to my wife the road had steep drop off berms the driver may have gotten too over for traffic and tipped it or ? Just a guess when I find out I will post it
Even the news said they were looking into it
I know theymore trucks and trailers to work with notsure if they try to save any of the beans
Actually not that difficult to recover most of the beans with a 'grain-vac' if they get it done before it snows.
Truck and trailer?? I see lots of damage to the entire rig. Looking at the single picture, I'd say the driver got off the edge of the road/driveway and it just laid over.
Happy to hear the driver was not hurt….start shoveling boys….
Had to avoid a squirrel in the road
OH Boy, Now you've spilled the beans on this farmer spilling his beans. 😊😊😊
We had an Anheuser-Bush tractor trailer roll over onto it's side. Every volunteer firefighter, OEM, first responder, etc. responded to help "off load" the cargo. Then they learned that it was O'Douls.
still not sure why he drifted off the road
as far as semi wrecks a friend of a friend 😁 owns a towing service several yrs back they too had a beer truck recovery a lot of free beer was dividend up .
we just received word the driver passed away (one of the neighbors sons ) at the hospital . not a lot of details and trying to respect to his family he was 56 yrs old also the local FD capt
I can not say positive
but rumor he had a aneurism or similar
that caused the crash and he died in the hospital care a few days ago . as far as I know he never left medical care after the crash .
RIP to a good guy and prayers to his family
Good he is OK. One here burning by the freeway.
He dog tank you for the well wishes
I am Sorry maybe I should have been more clear or started a new post
He passed away in the hospital later on .
I was updating the post
Very sorry to hear about your neighbor D\R.
Sorry to hear about this loss...prayers for his family and friends..
Whoah. Very sad turn of events. Sorry for your loss.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
I'm sorry to read this update. Prayers sent.
Very sad indeed.
