Ice...heat.....ice and heat......DRUGS !! Poor Greg, it was Gregs day yesterday, or maybe I need to rephrase that, it WASN'T Gregs day !! He and John were preparing a log to make a beam and it jumped up hit his right knee bounced off and just for spite hit his left....broken..recovering knee. Fortunately for him and not so fortunately for my swear jar I wasn't around to witness the incident but was around to see the damage. Gregs knee is a myriad of hues of blue green purple and black ...so we are back to a knee brace ...and a back brace and finger splits.....just when things were looking better. DOH !!! We welcomed Jodi our first Wwoofer yesterday, unsuprisingly she had managed to make it almost all the way on her bicycle but got turned around about 15 minutes from the Ranch and was rescued by Greg and John. I remember my first months trying to learn my way around the trees trees and more trees. I didn't...and Greg bought me a GPS, ...I still get lost ! Johns saga continues....he had dutifully planned the "day off" that we had so graciously given him, he and Trish are / were going North, up to Vancouver WA....it SNOWED and now it's raining. Discretion being the better part of valour, plans have changed, Portland is now the designated destination. We'll keep our fingers crossed for them and Mom and mum J can add them to their prayer list if they would please. Talking of Mom, today is her 90th birthday. Mom, Gregs mother is an inspiration to us all. At 90 she still manages to have enough energy and drive to put us all to shame. Happy Birthday Mom, we LOVE you . Time to start layering up, not sure if I dress for snow/cold or shorts for the tropical temperatures we are expecting this afternoon (51 degrees). Take care, keep safe, M
