Last night, while I was digging for some background to add to Babs Young’s regular Sunday night photo, she sent another one. This is a bonus, a true embarrassment of riches, and on top of it, I loved the photo. So here it is.
Babs wrote: When we came home Friday night there was a car on its side just north of us. I took this photo. Don’t know a thing about the accident. I kinda liked the photo and if you want to use you can and if not that’s fine too.
I want. As for the regular Babs photo, that will follow shortly – I’m on the trail of Supplemental Material. Back later.
Note: Word via the ever-reliable Eastport Market Grapevine is that this was a single car rollover accident. The driver was banged up a bit but elected not to go to the hospital, and so far as I know is doing fine. There were a lot of good people out there on the scene, doing their jobs on a cold night. Thank you to the folks from the Torch Lake Township EMS and Fire Department.

That photo looks like a still from a movie. God bless all emergency service workers, whomever and wherever they may be. From one who hopes (fingers crossed) never to need them.

Glad you liked the photo, Fee. It is pretty cinematic, isn’t it! We all hope never to need the emergency workers, but it’s a great comfort to me to know that if ever I do, there will be a familiar face there–a familiar voice urging me to Breathe, Gerry, breathe!

I’m glad the driver didn’t get serious injury. There are too many people killed or injured in the traffic .
Well. I wanted to comment on the image. The light is very effectful. Babs certainly did a good shot.

I’m glad, too – driving conditions were pretty hazardous on Friday. The driver was lucky. I’m glad you like the image. I thought it was a fine piece of work, and I’m glad Babs decided to send it along.

Thanx to both of you….I was so enthralled by the tree and its shadow, that I didn’t even see the emergency vehicles at first! Glad the driver is OK and I’ll add my thanx for emergency workers everywhere!
