Oh, to you too! A broken arm can't be easy either. So glad it's your "wrong" one!

Everyone! Update your virus filters! Avoid hikes! Insist you want to be alone! Stick to your chairs for safety!

desertgrandma - I am so glad you can be somewhat cheerful about what happened. I hope your injury heals quickly and doesn't keep you from enjoying future hikes. {{Hugs}}

Everyone thanks for your good wishes
just to make things clear, i was not being reckless, or trying something i shouldnt....have been going up there fairly steadily and learning the different trails.. i had already done as much of a difficult trail as i could, and had almost finished an easy, level one....... the weather was so nice couldn't get enough of walking.......and the mountains were so close and clear and the air so fresh..... and then that rock came outta nowhere and tripped me.......but if those 'Tanks think they've won......they don't know this desertgrandma...... stitchawl, your Helen Keller quote is exactly what I've been trying to get across to my family, but they do insist on loving me enough to worry and care, and i love them for that. |

Belated happy new year
Here's hoping that if I don't write my resolutions down I don't jinx my enthusiasm |

But sharing them with people allows them to keep pestering you about how you are progressing (I meant to say "incentivising" you ). |

Yes, there's no better incentive than preventing public humiliation.
