Y'all check out my xrays! The first two are the breaks, the other two are all the hardware they put in. They installed 16 screws and 2 plates in my ankle

Beware of Duck! Fred is always watching! 3 weeks ago I broke 3 bones in my ankle. I had surgery 2 weeks ago and they installed 16 screws and 2 plates. I have one more month of non weight bearing, then 6 weeks of physical therapy. Otherwise I'm doing great! Very little pain.

The utter ruins of what was once the gorgeous rotunda of the JN Adams Hospital in Western New York. Once has to imagine what this must have looked like at its peak.

Howdy y'all! On Sunday I fell & broke my ankle in 3 places, I'm tentatively having surgery next week. Please enjoy these photos I took minutes before I fell! I was visiting the gorgeous Miles Cemetery outside of Valmeyer, Illinois, built for veterans of the Revolutionary War.

I was planning to go to Chester, Illinois to see the Chester Bridge before they imploded it, but that didn't happen!

I grew a Chinese Snake Gourd, it's almost 5 feet long! It tastes like a cucumber, but spongy. My mom drew snake eyes and gave it a tongue too 😂

A tiny building along the railroad tracks in Louisiana, Missouri, with the inscription "Hart" above the door. I've been trying for years to figure out what this was originally for!
