Well my season took a turn for the worse today ... I was a bit later out than I wanted ... 4:00 a.m. heading down the ramp on the dock and slipped ... right foot up in the air, fell backward, but my left foot stayed put and my leg folded underneath me ...

... went to the ER in Westerly, RI ... end result, multiple fractures in my left tibula and fibula ... but as I am not local to this area (I was at my father's) the orthopedist did not want to treat me as i would not be able to do any follow ups.

My orthopedist up in Mass is out until Tuesday, so have a temporary cast ... hurts like HE - double hockey sticks ... I count the seconds until the perkoset ... not sure when I will be able to drive my car again, as I have stick, and fear it will be tough to push in the clutch.

While waiting in the ER, the nurse stepped on my foot, of my broken leg ... that was not cool, and she laughed ...

Hoping to get this cleared up in 6 weeks or so ... but the seconds go by like hours.
