Short night

Cindi and I were awaken by the sounds of an accident on the highway at 4 this morning. No idea what happened, but suspect a fellow with too much to drink crossed the interstate. One vehicle was air-borne for a time, because it landed on the grass by the frontage road but the barricade is still in place and undamaged. Thanks be to God all the people involved are alive and walking, but that one fellow who apparently caused it was quite obviously unsteady on his feet and not making much sense. We've had some terrible accidents right in front of the Church over the years, almost invariably dealing with traffic coming from the north. I've wondered if folks don't look over at the Church as it suddenly looms up (it's blocked from view by an overpass until you're almost upon it) and if that could possibly be a contributing factor.
