In mid September Stacy broke his ankle in an altercation with an oak tree while trimming a large branch that had broken off. It was a rather nasty compound fracture and he was taken to the nearest trauma hospital about 50 miles away. He is recovering nicely with some additional hardware in his left leg and is able to get back into his shop.

Life throws us curve balls sometimes, but the best outcome of the whole experience was how our neighbors came together to finish cutting up the branches into firewood and raked up the grass. We have the most wonderful and amazing neighbors here in western NC!!

The oak tree that fought back.

Our wonderful neighbors and our pastor finishing the job for us! Of course there were the jokes about what a guy does to get out of a bit of work!
