Not going to get into the whole long story now, but yesterday I had a bit of a c*#k up on the 'rock to the face' front that involved hospitals, plastic surgeons and all kinds of cool shit!
Halfway through being sewn up, in Grand junction, a hundred plus miles away from Moab I recognized his voice, and he's there to drive me home!
Nice going Michael! I can't tell you how much I appreciate it!!
Also, big thanks to Moab local Jerome Smart who performed initial first aid, took charge and got me to the local Moab hospital!
These guys are real life super heroes who live amongst us!!

Well, story and photos in good time, when you're up to it. For now, just like everyone else, I'm glad you came through this with most of you (including your sense of humor) intact.
And a toast to Ferretlegger!

Plus once again we have to insist on asking, Did Mike do the sit-start, or did he cheat?

Holy Moley, Jay - hope you are OK!?
Michael is a kind and considerate soul, indeed.
Got our own story about his kindness, as well.

I can vouch for Ferretlegger. He played doctor with my cast last month, spent at least a half hour softening up the toe area with his multitool so I could walk without squishing my toes. Even taped my toes, too.
A true gentleman.
I hope your face gets better, Jaybro. Looks f*#king gnarly.

They say climbing the wide sh#t will eat you up....never thought that the wide bitch could ever devour the master though. Glad you are OK (ish?) though, and salut those who stepped up to help you out in your time of need jay.

Ready for photos?
And, from the Ferretcam
Nah he's dead
But he got better
Last night, back in Moab, I think the South Park, Santa boxers tie the whole look together, don't you?
Remember when your mom told you to wear clean underwear, because you never know when you might be in an ambulance?
Not only did I wear these in the Ambulance, but my mom gave them to me!
