Camping Anniversary

One year ago today, I stupidly went off a bike jump on a kid’s bike and my not insubstantial adult girth crashed down breaking my wrist, necessitating surgery, and putting a big crimp in the midst of a ten day camping vacation. During our current trip, I’ve suffered a bent-back fingernail, a true redneck sunburn, […]
