Wreck


I just witnessed a two-car collision at the turn-in to Lift Cafe.  The driver of the car "in the wrong" doesn't even own the car, so he's looking very bummed-out. Their airbags went off and the woman was somewhat shaken up, leaning on my arm as I helped her away.

John was right on it.  He actually saw it happen and came out quickly.  After getting everyone out and about, he and I picked up wreckage debris.

Jamie called 911 and the fire truck and EMS were here briefly--gone now--and the police are filling out the usual forms.

So...both drivers will be telling the story again and again down through time until it becomes threadbare with the telling. And years from now when the topic of car wrecks come up, this one too will join the queue.

Without airbags this could have been tragic.

Peace.
