Things were going well, Tim and Biggsie made it down a week ago Thursday, the Transdimensional Spacegoat ( Bobby) made it down the same day, then left Sunday morning. A rancher ppulled up a few hours later with a four wheeler with Bobby on thew back. He had wrecked his pickup and had a bloody head and a fucked up neck. We got him in the Sterling and startedc a mad dash back to Casper o get him back tpo the hospital but stopped after a few miles and stopped a game warden and hd hem call the chopper as very bump we hit made Bobby cry out in pain. We layed him out on the ground and waited for the chopper. Later we learned he broke his neck. On the way to his pickup to gather up his phone, wallet, stash and some other incriminating stuff the Sterling overheated as the fan clutch wires got ate by the fan.Finally made it to his pickup which by that time had several law enforcement folks around it. It was touch and go but finally did what I went there to do. Saved his ass by doing it also. He was drink enough to blow more than the .08 threshold IF THEY HAD probable cause, which they didn't find anything to have probable cause over. I'll up load the pics from my phone....

Welcome back, Lee. After all that, and you still had the time to throw out your line? You would almost think that everything was working against the crew in this fishing trip. That's a serious accident Bobby had rolling his truck over. Hopefully, he will pull out of this OK.

Thanks for the pictures. They make your fishing story one never to forget.

WOW! How did it end up on it's roof? He's one lucky guy in more than one way.

Don't know the whole story yet , but he left the road sideways on a straight and level stretch. It's also the first place you can get phone reception .....

Well thank you. It was a little dicey for awhile and I didn't think I'd pull it off. But everything was gathered up that would have been incriminating while they watched.
