the next day you get a dreaded phone call that your husband and daughter have been in a four wheeler accident.   Thanks be to God  no one was severely injured…..a clavicle fracture, some extremely large bruises and painful-to-look-at road rash were actually a relief and blessing given that the ATV flipped over and skidded [...]

Tales from the North Woods…..

by Edie Wadsworth on August 5, 2008
