Neighborhood, stop supplying blog-fodder

So this is the view across from my apartment's front door. You can see the street, you can see a stop sign at the corner of a T-intersection. The slightly farther stop sign in on the crossroad and mainly for crossing pedestrians (children mostly as the school in the the far left corner of the picture). At that second stop sign, you can go straight or make a left.

Kevin and I have been sitting outside today enjoying the fresh air and mild humidity. We've got the grill going and were just finishing grilling up some hamburgers (Wegman's pre-made with bacon and cheddar inside!!!). It has been a busy day with many cars driving by.

As we were admiring the last few grilling moments of the burgers, a dark colored sedan pulled up to the stop sign. I did a double take because at first it looked like a child sitting on an adult's lap, but I recently it was just a very small woman (teenager?) driving and a bigger adult in the passenger seat. They made a right at the stop sign, and then drove a few feet to the second stop sign and turned right into the bushes!!

But it wasn't just into the bushes because just beyond the bushes there is about a 1 foot drop into a sunken parking lot (fortunately there were no cars parked there) and then crashed into the corner of the apartment building that's on the extreme right hand side of the picture.

Kevin and I saw this, people who live to the right of us saw this, some guys in a van that was driving behind the car saw this, and some ladies who were walking down the street. I ran over to see if everyone was ok. When I got there, the guy was getting into the driver's side and the girl was in the passenger's side. Someone from inside the building was yelling out the window "what happened, what happened?!"

The guy got into his car without saying anything to the crowd or the guy in the building and drove away!!!!! Drove away!!!!

I memorized the license plate number, the guy in the building got the make and model. The police are talking with the guy from the building now. **I just got to give my statement to the police too!**

I think that was one of the craziest things I've ever witnessed.





Oh, the hamburgers were amazing!!
