So last Thursday I loaded the family in the jetboat and we headed out to the homestead for the holiday and to work on our cabin.We got our root cellar all done and Saturday afternoon after a long day of hard hot work we all went down to one of the lakes to cool off and clean up.We went back to my father in-laws place were we stay while we are building and were going to put our wet stuff on the cllothes line and the line had jumped the pulley out on the tree.I grabed a old aluminium ladder to fix it.Got up the ladder and fixed the line .on the way up I noticed it was doing a lot of flexing.I started to come down and the wife said hay that ladder looks unstable and I said ya it feels prity janky.The words no more left my mouth and the ladder did a complete twist and I fell from 15 feet landing flat on my back.It was soft ground but a tree root was exposed and sticking up from the ground and it got me just left of my spine above the left hip.My family ran to my aid were the found me on my hands and knees thrashing around in the brush like a wounded bear.I laid up at dad's till yesterday when the pain was managable enough to make the 2 mile 4 wheeler ride down to the river and 35 mile run back to the landing.Went to see the Dr and after lots of testing no broken bones or internals.Just smashed the dickens out of the mussles.It feels like I'm being stung by bee's and comes and goes.I got some good pain pills and am doing my best to keep moving.I hope to get some work done this afternoon.Could use some prayers ! Thanks Paul
