Bruiser

No new shots for today so I thought I would share these.

4-Wheelers = Bruises... lots and lots of bruises. Okay, so this image was taken by my husband (please excuse the Auto setting and oof shots) last June. I was on a family trip in the Black Hills with my in-laws and we decided to rent 4-wheelers for the day. It all started out wonderful and the 6 hour ride was well worth the money. That is until I got a little cocky and decided to keep up with the big dogs! Big mistake... my 4-wheeler hit a root in the dirt path which jolted my handle bars to the side. Which then of course caused me to crash into a TREE! Thank God this was not my head. I flew over the handle bars and they caught my leg. Needless to say... I STILL have a bruise!!! Words of advice... 4-wheelers are dangerous and need to be ridden with caution. See the evidence below! These were taken a few days after the accident... much of the swelling had gone away.

OOoooooooowch! I'm glad that you didn't get seriously hurt. I always make hubby go slower when I'm riding along. I'm too afraid of things like this...even with a helmet! :-) Hope your legs starts to feeling better soon.
