03/14/09 Just to keep life exciting while driving to Leeville,LA. from Birmingham,AL.
I hit a empty 55 gal drum on I-10 in New Orleans at the I-310 Junction. I was trying to change lanes when my Son-in Law said " Look out a Barrell ".
Lucky the lid came off and sailed by the drivers side taking off the pet-cock of my Granby but missed the McKee Craft. The barrel damaged the plastic air dam and slide off the right side causing a bit of excitement in the right lane.
I was traveling about 60 MPH in the center lane of three lanes of traffic at the I-310 exit with no place to go but over the barrel.
All is well and still going fishing
