I've been tagged........

Haven't been tagged in awhile so thought I'd do it!The Rules:1. Go to your Picture Folder on your computer or wherever you store your pictures.2. Go to the 6th Folder, then pick the 6th picture in that folder.3. Post that picture on your blog and the story that goes along with the picture.4. Tag 6 other people that you know or don’t know to do the same thing and leave a comment on their blog or an e-mail letting them know you chose them. So here is my picture:

This is a picture of the ladder my husband was standing on March 22, 2006. He was on the highest step(25') you can see when the limb he was cutting snapped and slapped him accross the back of his legs sending him into a backflip and landing face down 20' from the tree. He was covered in bruises and broke his ankle but it could have been far worse...It was the slowest time as every turned as I watched in horror waiting for him to land so I could check on him..
