The
Swamp Road Chronicles®
"Ice Ghost"
My Story: I was
driving on Swamp Road in the evening on Christmas Eve, last year. I was on the
way to my mother's house for our family get together. It was very cold and frosty.
The air was filled with freezing fog that was settling on everything and
turning the whole world into an icy winter wonderland. It was beautiful, but
made for dangerous driving.
I was
proceeding down Swamp Road about 25 miles per hour when all of a sudden there
was a girl walking directly toward the center of my hood. I reached for the
brake, but it was too late. I braced myself for the collision and squinted my
eyes for protection against flying glass. But there was no impact. I swear, I
drove right through that girl with no discernable resistance. Her face
proceeded right through my windshield and right into my face and through it. I
felt no impact, but I did feel the coldest cold I have ever experienced. It was
very brief, but unimaginably cold. Of course, I knew what had just happened. I had just experienced Swamp Road Sally!
It was
literally a chilling experience.
