The conditions driving to the wreck weren't bad, except for ground blizzards and intermittent icy roads. Par for the course in that area. Did spend several hours 8 hours at the tow yard inside, with a wood barrel heater going full blast, because I 80 was closed from Rawlins east to Cheyenne. When it reopened, I was the only vehicle going EB until I got to Laramie. Another interesting day in the life of an insurance adjuster. Every one in the wreck was uninjured which is always the best outcome.Sistynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926528617816553064.post-87656011438464644032022-02-23T19:14:16.542-07:002022-02-23T19:14:16.542-07:00DRJIM
