:( not a good one :doh: I fell of a roof at my job last week. Although the outcome is way better than the other could have been. I will be in a Halo for the next 3 months

I dodge a bullet that day and I'm very thankful to be in the condition that I'm in. I landed on my forehead and fractured the 2nd vertebrae in my neck.
So everything is on hold for awhile

Folks take so...much for granted Jerry!

You will be in my prayers my friend. For now rest and heal as I know spinal cord issues all too well the past longest nine years of my life.
The garage / the job / the truck / and even the family can wait on you now. :pray:

But, about those white tail running around up there... :evil:

Edit: Not to worry Robert as I've offered to help Jerry with those pesky deer that's bothering him! :wink:

Gonna have to haul some tree limbs in the house for camo. A guy got this trophy this week here where my "Other Brother Darell"-(seriously I have an older Brother Darell LOL) does his 4-wheeling at here just outside of the city.
Beautiful rack with a freezer full of venison for Thanksgiving. :yip:

Ooh damn. Sorry to hear about the fall, but I like your attitude. As bad as it is, you're absolutely right - it could have been a hell of a lot worse.

Rest up and heal. As Jeff said, everything else can wait on you.

Saw this guy on Thanksgiving Day and wasn't ready to film him-this Sunday I was ready.
Typical Tennessee 8 point white tail deer that might dress out at 150-160#'s.
Turn your volume on and sorry for the crappy cameraman on the phone:
