One reason for the low work ethic in the garden was time this year, I didn't have much of it.
Right before harvest started here, my oldest daughter Emily fell seven feet off of an old playground slide, and broke and dislocated her elbow. We ended up in St. Paul MN at the Gillettes Childrens Hospital for surgery.
Fantastic Hospital, and a great staff did a wonderful job on her arm. We were very worried and sick about the whole thing, until we seen the other children in the ward. They work a lot with kids with Cerebal Palsy and help them use their hands and feet more.
Emily's broken arm was very minor compared to the other children there. The parents we met during our stay were all fantastic and strong people. I admire their courage and strength, not to mention being great parents to some children with some serious disabilities.
I will have no problem in the future making charitable donations to that hospital, and I am happy we had such great care there.
Pictures to follow this weekend.
