So I have been waiting to update to find out the final verdict on my uncle. After extensive surgery attempts to save it, the doctors informed him that they will have to amputate his leg above the knee. The news sucks, but I am thankful that he is otherwise healthy.

I spoke with him on the phone tonight, and he was in good spirits. He even felt good enough to make several off color jokes about his leg. He has always been some what of a prankster.

So I was planning on writing up posts covering my vacation ad the the storm damage from last Sunday. As I was getting ready to start writing the post, I got a phone call from my sister. My dad, my uncle James, and his son Scotty were out for a Sunday afternoon motorcycle ride. James went a little left of center and got clipped by a car. He is currently in surgery. Suddenly I’m not in the mood to write about anything else.
