I'm not sure I want to see the cause.
Today, amid more rain and flowing traffic, I read the cause of yesterday's blockage: at 1:46 p.m. a load of logs broke loose on Highway 95 near the south county line, with the spill reported to be blocking traffic. A cattle truck was clipped by one of the falling logs.
Today it may be raining cats and dogs, but yesterday it was cows and logs!
WoW! I bet you don't see too many traffic jams like this! The horses look as though they could care less!
ReplyDeleteThe horses get excited at first, going to the fence as if someone might come over and scratch their heads. But one no does, they go back to grazing!
DeleteI heard about that happening. That would change a lot of plans for people quickly.
ReplyDeleteAnd no way around--it's the only road in and out of Canada. The new plan: sit and watch Elmira Pond!
DeleteShould have had a few rounds of flash fiction with the jammed up drivers. Could have been fun, and who knows, you might have discovered the next blockbuster writer... a Charli Mills clone.
ReplyDeleteHa, ha! That would have been fun!
DeleteWow, I haven't seen a jam like that in a long time. That does sound like a grand flash fiction in the making. Raining logs and cows, I will have to remember that one. At least they can pass the time watching Elmira Pond.
ReplyDeleteToo bad I didn't think to paint a sign, "read my blog." :-)
