Just when things get good. . .

Well, we have had a great stretch of cold weather, snow is great, and I am getting in good shape. So, Wednesday evening I didn't notice a ditch that wasn't fully filled, and left my skis behind. Now I am stuck not skiing for the next several weeks?? due to a broken shoulder. :( I was planning to go to Stratton next weekend, too. Oh well, I just have to heal up by the last weekend in February for my trip to Heavenly! I guess this will give me a great opportunity to work on strengthening my legs. :)

Join the club.
Doing 4 hours of physio!

Need to get out soon!

Sorry to that. Was that in the really flat light befor the lights come on ?

Good luck with the recovery.

Actually, it was after 9:00, so it was all electric lighting. I guess I just wasn't paying enough attention. :)

Saw an orthopedic surgeon today, and he told me 3 weeks of no lifting my arm. Basically, the way it is broken, if I try to raise my arm it pulls the bone apart. Hence the pain! Haha!

I'll hop on the bandwagon. Broke my vicular bone in my right foot. It takes about 4-6 months to heal. Just when I started becoming a bitchin' skiier. But alas I have an insane pain tolerance and will be rippin' up Breckenridge in 18 days

whoa that sucks. get well!

thanks, this will equate to a big pay out. It was a car accident. So someone's gonna get some new skis when this gets settled

Boy, I sure am sorry for all the injuries out there. Aren't we supposed to try to be healthy in the winter and have all the accidents and joint operations in the early spring - so to be fit for the next winter?? Sometimes plans don't work out as they are supposed to.

Take the attitude of the young snowboarder I met on the chair last weekend. I asked if he was having fun. He said he was but, if he were to break something he would then have even more fun :!: :!: What can you do but go agree and along with a statement like this to see where it may be going :shock: Note, he was a snow boarder :!:

I hope you all heal quickly. And be proactive like Pavel along the way in his recovery. Early after his surgery, he bought a season's pass, and when no one's watching he went for a short drive - to test his escape route; then he tried on his boots (when no one was watching) just to push the recovery a bit more :!:

I fully expect to hear he has had his first run about 2 months earlier than expected by his doctors (but he knew better that this event would be sooner :!:).

Get well quickly guys :!:
