Surprise At Sunset

On the eve of Sunday July 28th during a beautiful sunset the B-Blogger was called to attention by former Councilman Ed Zellers a.k.a. "eagle eyes Ed" when he said "is that a car in the water?" The Blogger believes that the former councilman must be telepathic because as many of the sunset watchers flocked to the beach and the boat put-in, the sirens rang and our very own Betterton Volunteer Fire Company arrived. Our divers waded out into the water where this car had landed and immediately tended to the driver who appeared alive and frightened. The B-Blogger was close enough to hear our volunteers assure the driver that they would get her out safely and as the water's depth was only 4 feet she should have no fear of drowning. Just makes you proud to see their professionalism and expertise at work.  If you weren't on the scene last night check out the photos below. (Please note any  use of these photos does require the permission of the B-Blogger).

While fire rescue was able to get the driver out safely and she appeared to be the only person in the car the how and why of this bizarre incident is yet unknown to the B-Blogger. Any B-Towners who do have more information are welcomed to add this to the comment section.  Please avoid using the name of the driver and advise us of the information source
