Hey Don!

You are HARDLY setting an example for me, I dare say. ;D

Wish I could give your hand a squeeze and tell you everything's going to be alright.

But since I'm on the East Coast, I'll just radiate back to you some of those big-hearted rays of sunshine you sent me via email not too long ago.

RADIATING!!!

You get better, now, you hear?!

I've seen that pic somewhere.

Knowing Mr. Harder as the person he is, I would bet he made Eagle Scout in a week or two.

Heal fast bro.

From Jane 4pm Wednesday:

Don is still in an induced coma as planned. His vitals are good. Now I just need to be patient. I will update w/changes. Many thanks for all the love and support.

Mastadon rappelling his route, Cool Deal V A3+, as a storm approaches. We went back up the ropes the next day and got the send.

Don, you have a huge heart. Katie and I are thinking of you and Jane much. Get well, my friend.

All storms will eventually clear!

If Harder's falling off stuff there's no hope for the rest of us. Here's hoping for a speedy recovery, amigo. Thanks for the update and post again if you hear anything else. My best to Jane as well. We're all thinking of you guys.

DD, you're right about that. I could hear Don laughing, busted ribs and all

as I got my butt stuck in Midway chimney yesterday. I had no idea 5.4 could

be so desperate!

Jane, give Don a hug for all his Washington friends.......just not too hard.

It was so long ago so I might have this wrong, but I seem to remember Don doing NWF of Half Dome when he was, like, 14 years old. He got caught in a thunder and lightening storm and his partner gave him all the gear and made him sit on the other end of the ledge!
