I swear the older I get the more I think ladder+house is a bad idea. I was on my roof just last week thinking it wouldn't take much for this to go terribly wrong. Glad you're in reasonably good condition.

Geez you old guys.

I shudder to think about how much worse it could have been Ron.

Look after yourself and to a speedy recovery.

Thankfully you are ok, rest up and watch those damn ladders! I can relate though as I had started another post about meeting our famed Rikki D down in Tampa, I was there for a pretty major heart surgery and my wife can attest to my insistence that my watch get the attention from Rikki first. Glad to report my watch is doing well! ( ha )
