I went out hiking Tuesday night and looked over a cliff to see if I could find a cave below. I did end up finding it but only after I fell down about 25 feet and saw it when I hit the ground. Broke my left fibula and badly dislocated and broke a part of my right ankle. Goodbye to exploring 😂 at least for a few months. I managed to make the news during all of this but I just wish I could manage to walk. Still pretty lucky overall.

Re: RIP To Adventures
I am, I hope to get to leave tomorrow though. I’m trying my best to walk but the broken bones in the fibula pop every step I take and it’s gonna be hard to get used to. They want to send me home I just live alone with my dog so it’s a tough situation.DeathByMoths wrote:You still at -hospital name redacted-?

Re: RIP To Adventures
Glad you had your phone with you that you could call for help and that you're generally okay!
More online investigation than onsite exploration these days.

You think the guy on the front right was "punished" later for wearing brown dress shoes while everyone else had on black?
