Memories of the crash

came flooding back last night as I folded laundry. I came across my wind vest, arm warmers and gloves I wore that day. The vest is fine. They cut the arm warmers off of me, my only ones. The gloves were brand new, I'd just purchased from Clarksville Schwinn. It's odd to look at them the back of my right glove has a huge hole in the middle and all fingers are torn up. The left one has a few tears and one small hole but not terrible. My hands were relatively unhurt except for a small scrape or cut in a couple of places. I guess they protected me from worse damage.
