Today I enjoyed rain, jalapeno jelly, chicken pot pie, and James.

For Mutual tonight we had a combined activity with the Young Men in charge.  We went to the Wallace Ranch and rode the zipline, ate hotdogs and smores and had a wonderful time until Ty Applegate got hurt.  After becoming quite dizzy on the merry-go-round he got off and walked directly in front of the swing his sister Shelly was on.  The swing hit him in the face and knocked him to the ground.  He was out for just a few seconds but was carried back to the ramada by Jacob Flake.  He lie there for a long time while Brother Dewitt, who is a paramedic examined him and determined he needed to go to the hospital.  The problem is Ty's parents are in the valley.  Brother Dewitt took him and spent several hours with him at the hospital until his mother got here.
Ty has a break between his thumb and his wrist, a broken nose that may require surgery, several chipped teeth, and injury to his collar bone.  He is a little guy and a couple of years ago he fell out of a tree and wore a cast around his chest for several weeks.  
Here are some pictures of our activity.  As you can see, the Wallace's have a beautiful place and we are grateful to them for sharing it with us.

 Shelly loves to swing
 Wallace's is located 11 miles out of Vernon
on CR3144 and 12 miles out of Lakeside.
Brother Wallace began clearing trees in 1996.
There are five acres developed for
recreational activities.  You can stay
here for family reunions, girls camp, and
have your wedding reception here as
Paul's sister Dorina did.

Most of my zipline pictures didn't turn out 
because it was too dark.
