At first I was worried that the people were trying to leave the scene, since they backed out really fast, but then I recognized them as our next door neighbors. I raced outside to make sure everyone was okay, and to check out the damage. PRAISE THE LORD that no one was hurt, and they only managed to get our fence - not the house. It turns out that the wife was "practising her driving". She must have hit the gas instead of the break, but sheesh! Do you know what kind of force it takes to split a 4"x4" post??
In speaking with the neighbors about what to do, we found out that the husband builds fences for a living. He's going to fix it for us today and everything will be okay.
I'm glad things will work out, and I'm incredibly thankful that they didn't hit our house. Now how do we politely request that the wife practise her driving in an empty parking lot???

WOW! Oh my!! I am SO glad that no one was hurt and that it didn't hit the house. Eeeek!!!
Yeeshk! I'm glad everyone was ok. At least they didn't hit the house! Yea, I think a parking lot would be much safer for her to practice in...an EMPTY paking lot! hehe

Well my goodness! Thankfully no one was harmed and there was no major property damage! The parking lot sounds like a VERY good idea!
Holy cow. That's insane. I'm so glad that it wasn't your house.
Oh my! That was a close call! Too close.
Oh my gosh, that is CRAZY. So glad it will turn out, ok. Eeee, good luck on broaching the parking lot idea. Yikes!
