March: Spring Break was a bitch and a half. In retrospect the omen for BAD IDEA was written all over this terrible week! Sis comes up to visit, so naturally our friend Rie appears at the house. (she has been our friend for about 8 years...and has been known to visit for weeks at a time. She really is great though) So we went on a long awaited camping trip. It was nice, cool, overcast, spring-break-y weather. Then the cold wet wind came, then the night set in and brought cold pelting rain. We huddled in the camper. But it didn't last, the rain continued so much the the camper started to leak...a lot. Rie, sis, and I ended up sleeping rather uncomfortably (but at least dry) in the car. After a horrible three day huddling trip, we went home. I had decided to visit Marco before SB was over, so I came down on the Thursday of SB. I was 30 minuets from home...across the highway, down the bank, up the other side, across into on-coming traffic, and into the barrier. I broke my hip in 4 place...3 on the left 1 on the right.
And so I have been here (in the Valley) ever since.
