highway backup

this post is a bit late, but in my opinion so worth it. better late than never, huh? check out this picture. it's a little fuzzy bc it was taken on danielle's phone, so in case you can't see, ill explain:

We were on our way to the international fellowship last Sunday when traffic came to a complete stop on the freeway. This usually isn't the case on a Sunday morning, so we were intrigued as to what it could be. As we drew closer, we saw a lady in high heels carrying a watermelon off the freeway, and Josh said half-joking "Maybe a watermelon truck spilled all his watermelons." A few more minutes down the road, and low and behold, a watermelon truck had spilled all its watermelons out on the freeway. More watermelons than I have ever seen before. As we drove by, the smell was amazing. However, the sad part is that some poor farmer lost a lot of money, and in the midst of a severe drought, the farmers need all they can get. We hope it was a huge farming corporation who could shoulder the loss and not an individual heading to the farmers' market with his own crop. Who knows. All we know is, you never know what you're going to see in this part of the world.
