I had Saturday off,& decided I'd drive down to North Carolina,
(about a 3 hour drive)to see some Friends.It was supposed to be clear-
& sunny.
When I got up it was clear here (at 6AM).Drove about 15 minutes
West of here,& it started snowing.I went down Interstate 81,where I saw
a few accidents,& a tractor trailer rig on it's side.
There was a VA State Trooper on the left shoulder,where a pickup
looked like it had rolled.About then,I hit ice,& spun.I thought I avoided
hitting anything,when the right front of my truck hit the retaining wall.Not
wanting to stay there,in case another vehicle spun,I continued on,as there
was no indication of shaking on the front end.
When I stopped,I checked out the truck.This is what I saw -

Sometimes you get lucky - I just replaced the left front headlight surround.
