I still have a ways to go with this silly knee, but I did manage to go play a bit this weekend. A friend from work and I went up to the Canyon on Saturday and wandered up the Battleship. On the way out there, we met Max, who has posted here once in a while. He joined us and together we all hauled ourselves up to the top of the Battleship and back. What a great day!

Good to know that you are healing well....I am sure with the Cyn so close, getting there often and wandering about will strengthen that "silly knee" and you'll be good as new again. _________________ Do onto others as you would have others do unto you.

Thanks to all for the encouragement! I was wavering a bit, but I've decided to try another hike this weekend. Well actually it's Saturday through Wednesday. I'm headed out with some crazy folks in an attempt to get to (or near) the summit of Isis Temple. Wish me luck.... _________________ The world is older and bigger than we are.

Max, great photos! Thanks!! It was really a great day, and if you don't leave a bit of skin or blood along the way, you're just not having enough fun.... _________________ The world is older and bigger than we are. This is a hard truth for some folks to swallow. —EDWARD ABBEY |

Yep, I was thinking of that trip when I was up there. Mayhaps we ought to do it again one of these days... _________________ The world is older and bigger than we are. This is a hard truth for some folks to swallow. —EDWARD ABBEY |
