Stupid Things, Part II

I posted a few pictures from our recent BVI trip and realized I hadn't posted about my latest skiing accident. Yes, I had another one. I took a fall coming in after a great ski day at Squaw, tripping no more than a couple hundred yards before the end of the day and the start of a beer or two. Broke my humerus (that's the upper arm bone for those of you who haven't learned anatomy via ski accident).
I was on easy terrain, in complete control (if a bit fast, I admit) when I must've hit something. All forward momentum was translated into rotational momentum and I hit the ground, hard, right on my shoulder. To make a long story short, I took a sled ride down, had surgery a few days later, and am now, 7 months later, working on a frozen shoulder. But I'll recover and ski again next season!
