Bad Surprise

When I was leaving the Gil Read Tournament on Saturday night, I found that the back window on the Nissan had been smashed by a homerun.  The night before I noticed that a homerun had bounced between the cars in the parking lot about 40 yards on the other side of the fence.  I should have known that a ball could hit my car if I parked there.

I drove home without a back window.  I was stopped by a policeman.  I thought oh no I guess I am not supposed to be driving without a back window.  But the policeman had only stopped me because he thought the car might have been stolen.  After he checked and found that I owned the car he let me go.

I got home and my neighbour was just coming in.  He helped me cover the back window with a plastic bag because it was supposed to rain hard that night.

Barb checked around on Sunday and found a company that would come and replace the window right in our driveway.  It was covered by insurance and only cost us $140.  By Monday night, I was driving my car again to the ball game.
