A little excitement around the neighborhood

On Monday, August 7th, David woke me up and asked if I wanted to see what was going on outside.

Evidently, some guy came around the corner too fast and lost control and drove between the light pole and a cyclone fence, just missing Floyd's pick up in the drive way and then continued out the other side of the driveway and ended up in FRONT of our pick up!!!   You can see the second police car driving up behind  our truck.

Our friend, Floyd, called the police and asked if the guy needed any medical attention, he said no....and walked off.  When the first car showed up, Floyd told him what happened and was still talking to him when the second one showed up (you can see him behind our truck) and then they were both off to go look for the guy.

                                        


And, then they were back with the man in one of the cars.  They proceeded to check out the car and issue him some sort of ticket.

                                                     
                                                         
A tow truck was called and they removed the vehicle.  It had a smashed in door, broken front window and side window.

He was allowed to remove whatever he wanted from the vehicle....he took out several things, one of which was a car seat and some other things.

You can see him walking off, in the rain, with a car seat filled with items and an umbrella.

We, plus some other neighbors, found the event interesting enough that we sat in rocking chairs on our porches and watched.  I wasn't the only one taking photos!!  

We all were very blessed that day, as he could have kept on coming and hit the porch, one of our trucks or worse yet, someone walking on the sidewalk!

It's 25 mph on this street, but we have seen them FLY by!!!  Just insane.

A little excitement to start our day!!
