    Morning,

    Hang in there Bill, we are still praying for ya..

    Well, wife got a call from the SIL yesterday about noon, when our oldest girl was about 17 she had a horrific accident with her little Bronco II heading to school with one of her school mates... She had head injuries and spinal injuries, didn't know if she'd walk again, Joyce had to spend a year with her oldest in a HALO and learning to walk again and all kind of things.. Fast forward to 42 years old.... Her husband last year bought her a horse for her birthday since she was raised with them all her childhood. Her and three grandbabies wanted to ride and learn to ride. The call yesterday, horse spooked!! Put Racheal thru a fence and a wall, shattered her riding helmet, she is in the ICU in Tenn, Mom can't get to her, not that she could do anything right now.. Preliminary Dr. report, she has a lateral break of her neck, beaten bad all over real bad. Sore as hell this morning.. The kid has nine lives, most people don't do well with one broken neck, this kid has had two in her short 40+ years.. Jeeesuzzz will 2020 ever end!!

    Note to self, Horses are 1200-1500Lbs animals whose primary life response is to flee from a situation, FAST, if you are on them or in their way you aren't going to fare well..

    Everyone be careful out there in your daily lives

    RJ

    Bill, thoughts and prayers for you.

    It was snowing here. For just a bit. Sun came out and now it's gone. Strong north west winds. Typical November day.
    Sorry about my leaves in your yard.:D

    Now I know why I said this will be my last puppy. Good, erh whatever the hell time of day it is.

    Call name Jack. Jack was my Ex FIL that introduced me to Tollers more than 30 years ago. When his daughter left my sons and I we stayed best friends. Some of the best memories I own are of my youngest son, him and I hunting grouse with our Tollers. He passed away around 10 years ago.

    Breeder came over from North Dakata on July 4th and bred my current Toller who is 6, they had fireworks for the event. So full registered name will be Skylark's firecracker Jack. And he is a firecracker.

    Hang in there Bill and keep fighting. Mojo sent from Mn. and lots of it.

    Damn RJ that is just crazy and yeah sounds like she has 9 lives. Hope this one turns out OK as well.

    Note to self, the rest of the world doesn't anthropomorphize horses like we do and horsemeat is actually pretty good tasting.

    Was really windy here yesterday and today. 26° when I got up this morning and got up to 35°. Better than the temps I had the last couple of weeks on the North Shore. But anyway you cut it I am NOT ready for winter.

    Yeah every time someone says isn't it beautiful when it snows I want to... erh never mind. Tomorrow and next week supposed to get up the 60's! Which is good because the oak leaves are frozen in the yard and on the roof. I might be able to get them up before winter sets in for real. I for one am all in for global warming, and I approve this message.
