the river. It was here that Scott encountered<br />
a deep hole in the river and the<br />
snoot <strong>of</strong> his D90 suddenly dipped deep<br />
under the water. Quick thinking on his<br />
part he killed the ignition right away.<br />
The farrier boys managed to get<br />
Scott’s truck out and towed back to<br />
shallow water but only after Scott had<br />
been forced to wade chest deep from<br />
his truck in the icy river.<br />
To make a long cold story short here<br />
we got Scott into some extra dry<br />
clothes we had along while some <strong>of</strong><br />
the guys worked on getting his truck<br />
started again. In the end it was success<br />
but I am sure it took Scott a few days<br />
to totally thaw out. Hopefully he<br />
won’t try that again and I hope no one<br />
told his mum!<br />
