End of summer

 September was an AWFUL month that I never want to experience something similar ever again.
One day was going particularly badly.
Daniel showed up at our house one day in shock.
He had been riding his bike and got hit by a car.
Yes, he was wearing a helmet.
He was scratched up in several places, a couple of which were bad, but I'm not showing pictures of them.
After calling 911 and giving a report, it turns out the person who hit him had also called and said some bicyclist hit her car, causing a bunch of damage.
The officer told Daniel he was at fault because he was riding his bike on the sidewalk (on a very busy street), and going the wrong direction.
Even though the driver turned into a business parking lot, hitting him, Daniel was at fault because he was not riding his bike in the road in the correct direction like a motorist should.

While Daniel was on the phone with the officer, Kelly called and needed me to pick her up from Cross Country.
She sprained her ankle really badly again.
I had to drive through a park, on the running trail, to get to her, so her teammates could help her hop to the car.
