I kind of think we are probably around the same age give or take, but we don't bounce off rocks as good as we once did. My wife and I have had a few falls in the last few years and luckily we can tease and joke about our follies. So glad you are OK Val!!!! Gorgeous image by the way, take care!!

You are a masterful photographer, Val, and this image attests to it. As far as falling goes (what a weird twist of words), I think photographers stumble more per capita than almost any occupation. Too busy concentrating on the world around us, at the expense of our life and limbs! Glad you survived it, but it must have put a real damper on the hike!

Outstanding captuer Val - I sure hope that you are better soon - Sounds like aserious fall. I had just read where the Air Force had to rescue a hiker in Arizona after a fall - The weather and conditions were too challenging for the civlian rescue folks - She was lucky! Jeff

So you really started the New Year with a bang! Reckon it's just a "Texas Thang"? Hopefully you're on the mend and will be up 'n runnin' in no time. In the interim, kick back and let others wait on you! You deserve it! Don't you just love them straight from the camera? A real beauty, Val Gal!

Man. I've been pretty much "gone" the first couple weeks of the year, too, and now I come back to find out JR broke his ankle and you your arm. One thing that is consistent, though, is your ability to make great photos, Val. Wishing you a speedy and thorough recovery.
