Cow falls 200 feet onto van; Michigan couple escape injury
Wenatchee World ^

Posted on 11/06/2007 9:17:38 AM PST by SmoothTalker

"A cow fell about 200 feet off a cliff Sunday and landed on the hood of a minivan passing by Rocky Point about one mile east of Manson, officials said.

Charles Everson, Jr. and his wife Linda escaped injury.

"It was just 'bam'— you just saw something come down and hit the hood," Charles Everson said this morning from his hotel room in Manson.

He and his wife are in the area from Westland, Mich., near Detroit, to celebrate their one-year anniversary, he said. They were on Highway 150 headed back to their hotel after attending a church service."

And I thought “raining cats and dogs” was bad.

Yeah. But it still isn't as bad as hailing taxi cabs.

If happy cows come from California, clinically depressed cows must come from Michigan.

Cow tipping always leads to the harder stuff... Cow pushing over cliffs.
