Good People

Face4Me
So I'm driving back to my house from Whiteface yesterday afternoon and I use my windshield washers to clean the window. When the wipers move across the window, I notice a small piece of paper under the passenger side wiper blade. I immediately think, oh crap, someone must have hit my car and left me a note with their information.

When I get to my house, I get the piece of paper and look at it. It's a note:

"A black xxxxxx xxxxxxx hit your car 02/16/13 (driver side door) License XX XXX####"

I walk back around and look at the driver's side door. Sure enough, there's a very minor dent and some scratches. The good news is that I'm not really much of a "car guy" anyway, so given how minor the damage is, no big deal to me.

But, for the person who left me the note, if you're reading this, thanks a lot for the effort. I think most people would have completely ignored the situation if they'd seen it.

For the person who hit my car, if you're reading this, just remember, Karma's a bitch!!!

word!  someone dented me last season and left nothing.  But, I'm like you in that it was only a minor dent, it's a pickup, an adirondack pickup so the dent fits right in....

Nice to meet you.  Your little guy is quite the ripper!  He was tearing it on Hoyt's Saturday!

Nice to meet you too.

I'd like to take a couple of runs with you some time, though I'm not quite sure I can keep up with you!!! You guys come down like you're "on a mission"!!! Dang!!!

I wish... But not here...

I'd be happy to go to my grave without the snarly anti-snowboard bullshit that goes on here more than any other ski board i frequent by far...

I never even notice the small dents until I wash my car...  :)  It's pretty dirty now..

Oh yeah ... and with regard to that ... I'd love to say I taught him everything he knows, but the reality is, I've got Coach Z (and a few others) to thank for that!!!

Whiteface ski instructors rock!!!

I have had so many cars hit and damaged in parking lots and have never received a note from the offender or anyone else. Someone put a 3 foot long deep scratch, prob with ski pole on the side of my conversion van, back in the day at WF.
To this day, I fear my vehicle will becaome a makeshift snowboard/ski rack when parked in the lot of any ski area. I try to be as calculating as possible when selecting a place to park my car at ski areas, especially during busy holiday periods.

Some folks just don't give a crap about respecting other people's property. Age old problem.
