in the middle of nowhere

Rob and his good buddy Aaron are coming home from New Mexico right now.  They could use some prayers.  They hit three cows last night in the middle of SW Colorado.  I guess it is free range country, at least that is what the Sheriff told them.  The second sheriff to arrive, because the first couldn't get there because he hit an elk!  The guys are OK, they air bags didn't deploy.  They have been taken in by some very hospitable ranchers.  They got to spend the night at the ranch, and were treated to a yummy breakfast, and then driven to the nearest shop where the truck was towed.  The are searching out a U-haul to bring everything and themselves home. 

I am so thankful for the kind people they have encountered.  That they were not in Rob's truck, as Rob said if they were in anything that little they would probably be in heaven or in a hospital somewhere.  That he was with Aaron, this is the only person Rob considers a better driver than himself.  I am devastated for the loss of the truck, but glad it is only "stuff" and that the guys are in one piece.
I hope they are spreading the good news, and that things will continue to go well so they can get home.   Let's pray they come home safely, Rob is desperate not to miss Em's dance recital.

This morning Rob sent me a picture of the road in front of him, it was full of sheep!

ETA:  I just talked to Rob, they are in route, but had to go back into NM to get all this acomplished as they are in the middle of nowhere.  This means they now have to re-drive the same stretch of road that the cow + truck incident happened, ironic?  They are hoping to reach Lincoln, NE tonight.
