Hit By a Car!

Category: Landmarks

One morning (when I was around 4 years old) while my mom and I were walking to Jenkins Grocery Store, I ran ahead of her and darted across the street at the intersection of 17th Aveenue and 26A Street. I remember doing that a number of times- Mom would always called after me to stop and wait for her. This time I kept going and the next thing I knew I was hit by a car. It was going quite slowly but I was knocked down. I remember my frantic mother standing over me and the driver asking me if I was OK. I seemed to be so we continued on our way the grocery store. I remember having quite a head ache after!
