A friend of my Dad's probably still feels like that. Poor guy, fell off a
boat dock and cracked some ribs, had a collapsed lung (the doctors figured
out many hours later) and he's going to be hospitalized awhile. He was at my
parent's place at the lake for Labor Day holiday and was going out to the
boat with two tackle boxes and three fishing poles at 7 a.m. To get out to
the boat he was going fishing in he had to step over a large gap between the
boat house and older dock attached to it, then over a small boat set up onto
the dock too. It was wet from morning dew and he tumbled backward into that
gap into the water, hitting his head on rails on the way down and one leg
going between the connecting bars. He's 73 years old. From the story I
overheard, told over and over to other friends of theirs, this rendering is
extremely befitting of the accident. Luckily he's a resilient guy and should
be out of danger in a day or two.
I can't think of anything else about this picture except that, sorry.
