NOT OUR TIME TO GO

We picked up Ron and Mary yesterday afternoon to have dinner at the Sinton in Thessalon - I drove.  There was a large semi in front of us carrying what looked like steel.  Approaching the intersection of Highway 17 and 129, the truck had his indicator on to turn right onto the Trans Canada highway.  He proceeded to turn, moving slowly as it was a big heavy truck.  I glanced to the left in time to see a huge tanker carrying fuel barreling straight at the slow moving truck turning right in front of him in his lane.  The fuel tanker moved into the oncoming traffic lane to the left - thank goodness there was no cars in that lane or the fuel truck would have had to make a quick decision - slam on his brakes which would have caused the back end to slid into us  or a head on collision with the oncoming traffic or swerve to the right and hit us broadside.  We all were watching this happen right in front of us - all happening so quick you would not have had time to react.
There was oncoming traffic but far enough away that the fuel truck safely made it back into his lane.  It was raining as well so the highway was nice and slippery.
I have to thank my Guardian Angel for watching over us yesterday.  Thanks Mom.
