If you know any locals, ask 'em about Lou Gaffett's Monday Night Club. It was legendary - they had lines secured to one of the support posts at the end of the bar so you could be lashed upright if you were too drunk to sit, much less stand.
Ahhhhh...those were the days! 
But anyway, I'm curious, how did you get treated on the Island, I'm wondering 
Man, getting back up the bluffs must've been a beyotch  |
I was with Tagger, DZ fished late into the night, Me and Tagger got up at 4 am to fish dusk.
There is a medical center here now they have x-rays and could look at it right away.
Getting up that bluff wasn't to easy I used my rod as a cain and took a while

It is my right foot and it is in an air cast so I can take it off. |

Bob, ask DZ where 'Thumper's Rock' is - I'm pretty sure you could fish it wearing an air cast if you wanted to...it's sorta near the Chute. Well, kind of -
Only kidding, just trying to give you a laugh to make ya feel better - hope you heal quickly.
