Kicked out and back couch surfing. 3 more weeks and I’ll be back riding the rails. To Van then Mtl and to the east coastIMG_0239.jpeg
I don't normally make posts like these on social media at all but I decided to make a exception.

While at church this morning in Ely , Nevada , we had a three way accident at the corner. My pups and our wagon cart was out in front of it and the wreck caused the dogs to bark.

Being a former fire fighter, training kicked in as I ran out to check for any injuries. Out of everyone involved we had a lady with whiplash and a headache but then we had a man in the brown car who hit his head on the window and was bleeding very heavy from his wound and was , possibly, concussed.

Grabbed my medical bag and started working on him first while I want for the sheriff's deputys and EMS to arrive. Last I heard he was stable .
Wherever I am, Sade is always with me 🥰
