Vernal, UT

So made it to Vernal, UT...there are only about 2-3 places to even get a beer in this town...so of course we hit 1 of them.

Had a couple of Ambers...and watched the olympics...nothing like half naked women...hugging and slapping each other's butts...diving for balls in the sand...ahhh women's beach volleyball...all the boys like it!!!

The big adventure is finding food and beer in the same establishment...

Meet my new Knee...



Taking up Old Hobby...

So after sulking around for a couple of days...it just came to me as to what I could do with some of my new found "free" time...

Competative Shooting.

We finally have an indoor shooting range in Fort Collins...so I guess I will start running up a bullet bill and go back to working on my shooting.

I got the call from the Orthopod last night...Torn ACL in Left knee. But hey...I didn't rip it off the bone.

I am done at least until next summer...

My list of things I cannot do:
Snow Skiing
Snowshoe racing
Running
Softball
Volleyball
Dodgeball
14ners...due to having to get down...he stated I can go up.

What in the Hell am I supposed to do???? This is not going to be pretty at my house for a while. I am already in a mood.

End Game...

So...For those who don't know...

While Playing in a softball tournament the last weekend in July...I fielded a ball and came down on my knee wrong...probably blowing by left ACL.

MRI was on 5 August....waiting for the results.

Looks like my softball days are over until spring. Still holding out that the Adventure Race will be a go...depends on what kind of brace they get me into to stablize the kneee.
