A couple of Weeks ago I was with my business partner on highway 5 in Cabot looking for land. We have a client we a working for that wants ten acres of land close to the Cabot area. It was raining that day, no it was pouring that day. I was driving and we were talking about business and such and suddenly something went wrong.

The back end of my car started hydroplaning toward the ditch! That means the front end of my car began heading towards on coming traffic. There were other cars coming so I turned the wheel in the other direction. When I did that all hell broke loose. In the blink of an eye we went off the road into the ditch and the back passenger side of my car slammed against some trees. The impact spun us around and the car stopped. Luckily I was not injured and I looked over to my business partner and he was leaned back and said he thought he broke something in his shoulder.

The ambulance came and took us to the hospital. My partner did break something in his shoulder, but it could have been much worse. It is incredible how fast life can change. I consider myself lucky and feel that I had someone above that was watching out for us. Here are some pictures of the car:

 

 

If someone had been in the back seat I think they would have died. I thank God everyday that we are still both alive.

Good day

Someone was watching out for you. The back of that car looks rough. Glad you are okay.

Wow, Charles.  I just decided to check on you and saw this.  How frightening.  I always worry about accidents with clients in the car.  I'm glad you're okay.  I'm going to subscribe to your blog so I'll know when you post.
