Smash

How do you put a damper on a fun day at the Sheep & Wool Festival? You get rear-ended on the way home! Yup. We had just exited the fairgrounds and were stopped at a light and, well, the driver behind us didn’t stop. Drew saw her coming and was sure she was going to hit us, so he took his foot off the break and steered into the shoulder so when she did drive into the Jeep at least we didn’t then hit the car in front of us. Everyone is totally fine, though, and that is the important thing. The Jeep is at an auto body shop and they’re going to check it out. While there doesn’t appear to be any real damage, the guys from the fire department thought it would be a good idea to have it looked at because of where she rammed into us. So I need to make a few calls this morning and get the ball rolling. Hopefully if there is any damage it can be repaired quickly.

The boys weren’t shaken up at all. Two hours after the accident, I was still shaking and my heart was still pounding, but at the scene they were just sitting there eating their pretzels as the EMTs came over and talked to everyone to make sure we all were fine. And we are. Even this morning no one had any aches or pains.

I have a ton of writing to do and just no motivation to do it. Anyway, Rhinebeck post forthcoming…
