Hah…did you drive up onto the median on the strech around Wendy’s too? LOL…it was the only way I could keep going.

Looks like one of those big scaffolding things that a window washer would use on a big building fell from somewhere and landed on a taxi outside Gateway Tower 3 near the downtown Hilton. We couldn’t see it happen, but there is a big piece of scaffolding on top of a taxi out our office window
