The Big Break

Wednesday night we got our first big break of the tour... and not a good one. At about 1am, Ashley fell off of the top bunk and broke her right arm. Thanks to Mary Lynn and Sara, and a little help from the campus police, Ashley was whisked off to children's hospital and reappeared the next morning with a bright blue cast. So we're down a violinist, but the good news is that the tour now has an additional tambourine player, page turner and audience member. The orthopedist took a while to get around to setting Ashley's arm because apparently he had been a little busy and this was the 10th cast that he had applied this night! Anyway, all's well now and we're off to Nantucket on the ferry.

  1. Healing thoughts go to Ashley! Hopefully, all will be well before the new school year starts. I heard that Ashely might be in the market for a 'swimmer's cast' for the family trip to Hawaii. Is there such a thing? Hope the heat out east is not so bad anymore... We have nice temperatures here on the west coast. See you all at the airport tomorrow!

  2. Our love to you Ashley for a speedy recovery. I also broke my arm at camp when I was 12 years old!
