Got a call this morning from our son that started with "First off, I want to tell you we're OK".

Without going into a lot of detail, there was a little blood, a headache and scrapes and abrasions. Willie and his buddy were out and walking when the ambulance, that had been 1/2 mile behind them, pulled up.

Let's here it for seat belts and WEARING THEM!

Really glad they are okay. That looks like it could have been really bad.

I used to wheel a lot. . .

Yeah, it was quite ride.

He feel asleep and woke as he was drifting into the center median, over corrected and spun out THEN rolled 3-4 times ... all at about 70MPH.

It could have been a LOT worse.

I tried to convince him that now'd be a good time to get an 4x4 ... not so much, yet.

Usually you see a car trashed like that people are headed to hospital. CHP and Vacaville Police said they must be "tough as nails".
