The trip to Dwellingup last weekend is the trip that keeps on giving, it was the trip that kept PDP going through a heck of a week. My friend, aka mon amie française Marie, was heading over to have lunch with me. I got a shaky call 'Grace I've had an accident', I knew exactly where it would be. I won't go into details but two minutes later this is what I saw, too much too soon! My heart stopped! The best news, although my friend's much loved camper van that took herself and her late husband on many trips around Australia is a write-off, as is the other car, both drivers were bruised, shocked but unscathed thanks to safety belts. Btw just in-case you're wondering I didn't take this shot until after mon ami was safely in the ambulance :) Aimee got serious flu, looking after her I got it too. The week could have been unthinkably worse.. not always but sometimes, miracles do happen. Happy weekend, take care and stay safe..

So sorry about your friend's accident Grace, it's awful but glad that she's ok. Get better soon too. Hubby had a cold about a month ago, and came home today complaining of sore throat and body again. Both taking all the vitamins we can as I don't want to catch it and it's awful to be sick when you flying in a couple of days! Hope the next few days are better for you. Xx
ReplyDelete...that first one is amazing, the second is so sad.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great reflection photo. Love the way the water bends it. Good to know your friend was not badly hurt in the accident. Cars can always be replaced, but friends can not.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I'm so sorry about your horrible week. I do hope everyone is okay, injuries taken care of and sicknesses gone! Take care!
ReplyDeleteThat is a horrible accident but most important is that your friend and the other driver are ok.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about the flu, hope you will get well soon.
A phone call can change your life! I am happy your friend was not seriously injured. It must have been traumatic however. It looks awful.
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon, PDP.
Ouch! Glad all is OK with Marie and the opposing driver, though; these things come out of nowhere... Stunning first shot!
ReplyDeleteThe important thing is your friend is relatively okay. Get plenty of rest.
ReplyDeleteOh. Grace.....things have got to get better for you! Thank goodness your friend is okay.
ReplyDeletehappy for your friend.. ew
ReplyDeleteGlad your friend is going to be ok. Take it easy, get rest and feel better.
ReplyDeleteOh Grace, what a terrible week for you. I can imagine your heart stopped when receiving your friend s call.. Hope things will be okay soon for everyone. Keep going and stay save.
ReplyDeleteBe safe, grace! Glad everyone is okay. Most people I know are feeling nervous about the state of the world without having the extras that you have had this week!
ReplyDeleteLove that top photo with the swirling water but so sorry about the news. Phone calls like that really can stop your heart beat for a second. Take care and all of you get better quickly. Take care and try to relax over he weekend. Hugs Diane
ReplyDeleteThe first picture was excellent, the second not so good.
ReplyDeleteI hope all will be well.
Sorry about your friend's crash. If she could call you, I guess she is not badly hurt. The first photo is stunning.
ReplyDeleteOh what a nasty accident. I'm glad that nobody was seriously hurt, but the trusty camper seems to look rather crumpled. I hope your flu has flown away and this coming week will be much improved!
ReplyDeleteHappy that no one was badly injured.
ReplyDeleteGlad they will be ok! Your first photo is a real gem, Grace. Thanks for reminding us to value today <3
ReplyDeleteOh yes, that would certainly cause your heart to stop. Thank goodness nobody was badly injured.
ReplyDeleteDreadful! Those are the kinds of weeks you want to put way, way behind you and I hope you're able to. The beauty and peace of your first shot is a perfect meditation on peace. I hope you (and Marie, especially!) can breathe that in.
ReplyDeleteOh, Grace, I´m so sorry to hear about it all!
ReplyDeleteBut you are right, things could´ve turned out worse... oh, don´t you just hate traffic? I´m so glad I can walk to work for the time being.
Get well soon xox
Sad to read. Hope all ok.
ReplyDeletePrayers
I'm happy to hear no one was seriously hurt. I absolutely hate traveling on the freeways and interstates! I'd rather take a longer route any day.
ReplyDeleteI love that first photo.
Glad your friend is going to be ok. Take it easy, get rest and feel better.
