Tunnel Trouble

We drove to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel but were stopped from going through. The wind was too high. We were put in a holding parking lot for about half an hour and then allowed to pay $28 to go through.

As we were nearing the end of the first tunnel our mirror was hit by a dump truck heading south. It smashed the mirror and also smashed the driver's window. I was driving. I was covered in glass. I kept control and we called 011. We were met at the north end by the police and we made a statement. While I was doing that Helen tried to clean up the glass. In order to do it easier, she put the dog in the car where he shit. We got all the info on the other driver.
We stopped at Accomack where a glass company made a plastic insert for the driver's window.

And we got home at about 2pm on Friday, March 10.
The dog was very happy to get home. He ran up on the porch and barked until we let him in.
