"It's still shocking," said Kissinger. "We just keep thinking about it and how lucky we were."

Kissinger had just set up his portable fish house on Wayzata Bay around 6 p.m. Friday night. Hoch was sitting in a chair inside while Kissinger went outside to set up a portable fishing pole. He then saw a pair of snowmobiles in the distance speeding right towards them and knew something was wrong.

"I screamed and waved my hands and started running that way," said Kissinger. "The next moment the house was gone. The snowmobile had just smashed right into it."
