Car meets horse by cjwhite

Car meets horse

We've had a rough start on this early Easter morning. My husband, Jeff, is fine and that is the most important thing! He hit a horse on the way to work. He only got a few miles up the road, when it happened. It was dark and there was no way to avoid the horse in the road. Sadly, the horse didn't make it.

I'm putting this in my second album, as I'm hoping to find a more cheerful pic today for my 365 album.
What a blessing he is ok! I bet you are quite shaken too.

@anitahoyle Yes, it is a blessing! I didn't want him to go on to work, but he is the manager on duty at the restaurant he works at and it's a holiday.

Good lord thankfully he is okay. that must have been so scary for him. and you when you found out...
At least he had a big truck, looks like a smaller car and he would have been in a more serious predicament.. Take care both of you..

@nikkers It took me a very long time to stop shaking. He kept saying he was okay, but I needed to see him and give him a big hug!!!

Oh No! What a bad way to start the day. Glad he's OK....Thanks for sharing.
April 24th, 2011  
Oh no! Glad to hear he is OK.
April 24th, 2011  
Oh so sorry to hear that - what a fright for you. Poor old horse but glad your husband's OK.
April 24th, 2011  
wow...glad he is alright.
April 24th, 2011  
Glad all are OK...poor car

Not many people have hit a horse with their car. Glad he is OK but I guess you will have a shaky day. How is the horse?

Poor horse, too, btw

@annamaker Sadly, the horse didn't make it. My husband and I both are animal lovers, so we are heartbroken. We live in a rural area, so cows, horses and especially deer are often hit by cars. Horses are more rare than the others.

glad to hear your hubby is ok...as for the horse, it always breaks your heart when something like this occurs and there is nothing you can do...hope your day gets better.

What a horrible start to the day. Glad to hear your husband is okay; but so sorry for the poor horse. Hope the rest of your Easter improves.

Oh dear Carolyn - I just read about this in your other album. I hope he is fine. What a trauma for your both. I hope the rest of the Easter holiday is safer and happier for you.

Oh my that's definitely not the best way to start your day. Glad to hear your husband is OK but I bet he was a bit shaken after and as Bill said poor horse.
