you must be in the land of toilets flushing in the opposite directions?
Nope….Baltimore - Washington DC area.

The close proximity to the Atlantic (Gulf Stream) moderates the weather. Not unusual for trees and bushes to bud this time of the year

Are you OK?

Looks like the handiwork is ahead.
That happened in Mar 1998. I rolled it in Northern Alberta, north northeast of Slave Lake. I took the pictures, it was still running in the one shot. It was now facing the opposite direction I had been travelling. Another vehicle was about a minute behind me, and had stopped before I had even gotten out. They called for the Police and Ambulance, and it took about an hour for them to arrive. Health Services had a Beechcraft make a couple of flybys over the crashsite. I was taken to a local Hospital, and X-rayed, then airlifted to a Trauma Center, back home, a few Hundred Miles away. I wasn't impressed being strapped to a Spine Board for 12 hrs. A CT revealed a broken Vertebrae, but not where it jeopardized my Spinal Cord. The Cop and later the Doctor, concluded I would not be alive if I had been wearing the Seat Belt. I was off work for a Week.
I was never comfortable in Vans and refused to accept a new one to replace this one. I demanded and got, a truck.
