Wild Horses

Today I witnessed probably the most bizarre traffic mishap. Whilst tooling up NJ Parkway north, there was a strange back up at the Asbury Park Tolls. Lots of smoke, etc...I assumed they were paving the roadway or something. By the time we reached the actual toll booth, traffic was being diverted and I could see a man holding the reins of a horse on the other side of the tolls. There was a horse trailer on fire! There was a large recreational vehicle smoking like crazy...okay. Weird enough.

We get past that and low and behold, the traffic is backed up again almost to exit 105...and no wonder. I glace to my left to see two horses, spooked...galloping full steam up the express lanes! Gosh, I could smack myself for not having my cam at the ready....

Anyway..I finally found a news link for the breaking news...I didn't realize how tragic the story really was until I read the full details. VERY SAD.
