On a Serious Note -

I had to post this update......

Yesterday Joel went on a motorcycle ride after he was done working. Those of you that know me, know how much I HATE him riding! We have recently talked seriously about him selling the bike and getting a fun old car.

Well, my worst fears came true yesterday. He wrecked his bike! Thank God he will be okay. Basically his bike was acting up, and quit running. He was on a country road, and was pulling over to restart it. It fired back up on its own, and basically bucked him off the back. He went off towards the right and has some road rash. They worst is that he has broken and dislocated his right wrist.

He is in surgery as we speak having it set, and having a plate put in. His right arm will be no use for several weeks as it heals.

So, the moral of the story....the bike is being sold!!

Here is a picture of his arm last night after it was casted to help stabalize it before he had surgery today.

Oh my god, I'm glad to hear he is okay and understand all about the bike! Cody had a good spill a while back and scared me and him pretty good. I wish his street bike was for sale but it is sitting in the garage! ???? Maybe things will change after the baby is born.
