Yowch, sorry to hear that Randy. Is he self-employed? And if so, is covered by insurance and/or OWCP?

He's running a small logging show JJ. His brother buys a tract of land, Tracy cuts, his son skids. I doubt he has any on the job coverage at all.

I know we've all been doing a lot of helping out around here lately Randy. But if you want to throw together a raffle or something count me in.

Hate to see a family go without.

sorry to hear this Randy. I had a friend who was a climber, doing a job on the side by himself for a church friend. The daughter of the homeowner hadn't heard the saw in a while so went to check on him. He had been folded backwards and crushed between the chunk he was taking out and the remaining trunk that he was harnessed to. It was a bad scene. Messed up that teenage girl for months.
The second we think we are invincible, Mother Nature will prove otherwise.
I'll think of Tracy.

I appreciate that you are willing to pitch in. That means a lot. Let's see how long he is out of work....

I am not the praying type

And that's ok. As a matter of fact, that's what I love about this site. Here we are, from all over the world, coming together to share a common bond. Different people, with differing beliefs, yet we can treat each other with respect.

Thanks for all the support for Tracy. He will probably be at our GTG in Dec. I hope everyone gets to meet him.
