Man, Russ, I feel your pain - I said in an earlier thread walking on that small rip-rap at the Ditch Saturday was like balancing a Bongo Board on broken bricks -

Taking a digger on that stuff ain't fun, I know - that stuff is exactly like the short rip-rap on Newport's Cliff Walk - ya gotta kind of guesstimate the relative size and shape of the rocks and then step slowly to figure out if it's gonna buck you off when it shifts.

Been walking on that crap since I was a kid - and I've got the scars to prove it too.

Broken Arra

- I guess it coulda been worse, like arm or leg.

Hope you're feeling better.

Were you wearing korkers?
