The Motorcycle Diaries Part 8: A Sudden End

Mobile blogger has  been an ongoing annoyance. I will post more on that later.

Meanwhile here is the update that I have been trying to post since last Sunday (July 15).

Rear ended a GMC/Chevy Suburban on Highway 18 coming out of Lincoln City, Oregon last Saturday.  I have/had a badly bruised left foot with a dislocated big toe, a broken left wrist, a broken right thumb, a broken left elbow, and a badly pulled pelvic/flexor/whatever the muscle that lets you swing your legs in a walking motion is called.  I am actually fine, just inconvenienced.  I'm home now (thanks again, stupid mobile blogger) and working on mobility and healing.

Here's a picture of me in the hospital from last Sunday looking cheerful, which I was.  I can also say that I actually had a really good time the last two weeks, including the hospital stay, so "good vacation, too bad about the broken bones" sums it up quite nicely.

Didn't I just tell you to "be safe"?! Good grief! :) Relax, and get well!
