It only took a few days for me to get tired of it.<BR/><BR/>I wish I could laugh at your story of sliding on the ice, but instead, it made me cringe. I had a similar experience here in January of that first winter in Pullman. The difference was that my excursion ended when I fell on my butt and my right leg collided with a curb. I heard and felt a "pop". The popping sound was my leg, not the curb. Broke my leg, needed two surgeries, was on crutches until April and in physical therapy until August. <BR/><BR/>Honestly, about the worst thing that I thought could happen from falling down while I was walking was a bruise on my backside...somehow it never occurred to me that I could break a leg from it.<BR/><BR/>My legs all better now, but I sure miss Hawaii this time of year.<BR/><BR/>Watch your step, brother!!!Navy Blue Cougarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04038101146366045772noreply@blogger.com
