This past summer while driving to the local park, I noticed that traffic was getting backed up, my turn off was just before the backed up traffic.

A short time later the good Samaritan helicopter landed in the park to air lift a young boy that was skate boarding across the intersection, and had been hit by a car.

He was 11 years old, and his injuries were extensive so the decision was made to air lift him to Parkview Hospital in Fort Wayne, Indiana. This is an hour's drive by car.

He had surgery, and did come through the ordeal okay. He had darted out into the intersection after the light had changed.

Earlier I had posted a shot of this helicopter after it landed in the park, and was able to get a shot of the pilot, some might remember it, but I have since removed it from my gallery.

This is my entry into the current contest.

Thank you for commenting.

We are due to get some bad weather today, possible high winds up to 70miles an hour, and could be some heavy tornado outbreaks, everyone in that path of storms, I truly hope you come through it okay, hopefully it won't be as bad as their calling for.

I hope to be still online later on in the day.
