Zoom...Zoom... Ka-Boom (ouch)

Last weekend we decided at last minute to go see Jason's mom and family. They were meeting up with some friends in Arizona about 30 minutes out of Blythe. We have been there before with them and thought it would be fun to also go for a few days. It is literally in the middle of the desert and it is a wonderful place to ride our dirt bikes. Jason's mom brought out their travel trailer and the girls had a fun time hanging out with grandma and papa. Jason and I pretty much went riding the entire day, and near the end of the day I decided to not ride my quad any longer. One of the guys in our party rides his dirt bike professionally and Jay thought it would be fun to go out with him. Jason has been thinking he may someday start racing his dirt bike as well at our local tracks. Both of them were gone for a while and decided to come back to camp. Not even 1/4 of a mile from where we were camping Jay hits a large rock and his bike flew one way while he flew another. He came back to camp not saying anything about being hurt and was only worried about the way his new dirt bike looked. He got out the tools and fixed his bike for a good 20 minutes or so.

Once he got undressed he then realized he was hurt pretty bad. He had a little over a 2 1/2 inch cut almost down to the bone on his knee. At first he was not interested in getting it checked out, but then realized it was pretty bad. We loaded up the truck, the kids, and all of our junk and drove 3 1/2 hours home so that he could be seen. I took him to the hospital and he ended up receiving 14 stitches and a huge soft cast on his leg. He really does not complain about it much...Thank God! But boy is he proud of pushing himself on his bike. I can tell you...my husbands crazy at times! LOL :0)
