And it appears we left just in time. I wasn't aware the stage coach show was going on or I'd have been in the middle of what just happened. (A stage coach flipped over during the show and several ambulances and other rescue personnel are there right now).  :spooked:

A six-horse stagecoach overturned inside the Pepsi Coliseum at the Indiana State Fair Sunday afternoon.

Five people were transported to Methodist Hospital with non-life threatening injuries, according to fair spokesman Andy Klotz.

Percherons and Clydesdales, large horses known for pulling coaches and carts, were scheduled to begin competing in the Coliseum at 5 p.m., after 4-H dairy cattle contest concluded there earlier today.

Erika Elaine Burghardt, of Mulberry, the reigning Miss Indiana State Fair queen appeared to be riding atop the stagecoach beside the driver when it tipped over.

The accident occurs just one day before the one-year anniversary of the State Fair stage collapse which killed seven and injured nearly 60 people.

I love draft horses and had I known the event was scheduled today at 5pm I would have been there for it. Never realized it until we got home and heard the first reports of this accident. . .

Equal opportunity offender.

Q. How do you get a guitarist to turn down?

A. Put some music in front of him.



Q: How many bass players does it take to change a light bulb?

A1: Only one - but the guitarist has to show him first.

A2: Six: One to change it, five to fight off the lead guitarists
who are hogging the light.

I found a female rotweiler today. She was wandering around the road I live on. I stopped to check on her and she climbed under my car. :biggrin:. So, I turned the engine off, grabbed a couple dog treats that I had in the car and sat dow. Yes, right in the road. LoL. Eventually curiosity got the best of her and she belly scooted out, sniffed me and then nudged the hand w/the treats. I gave those to her and scratched her ears which earned me a lick on the hand. I patted her, got up and opened my car door and she jumped right in. I got her some food and water she was starved,n let her rest and then took her for a walk to see if I could find the owner. I gave out my number to a few, called animal control and the humane society with my information and a description of the dog and put out an APB on a social network. In the meantime, my daughter made signs and plastered them all over. She's friendly, but won't leave my side and I'm in love. If the owners don't show up, I can't turn her over to the HS and I can't keep her. I have enough trouble finding places that will accept my Golden. One guy seemed surprised that I wasn't afraid to approach her. I laughed and said, "I wasn't, but I didn't. I let her decide to approach me". Besides her owners obviously love her. She's well groomed and very sweet. She knows simple commands like sit and heel. I hope they get her soon or I may have to sue for visitation rights ;D
