As you may know I suffered broken bones in the radius and ulna of each arm last May in a motorcycle accident. Even typing is a chore. Tomorrow I will have bone grafts and get new plates to stimulate growth, looking forward to healing. First time since 1960 to not ski :-(

Chuck,
You have been in my prayers since day one of hearing about the problem. I still talk to him about it. I certainly hope our medical knowledge these days works out for you. Keep the faith going and keep us informed. The best from the Brainard family!  Damn, get rid of that cycle!

For thousands of years men have felt the irresistible urge to go to sea, and many of them died. Things got better after they invented boats.

Best thoughts for you Chuck. Had a bit of a bone graft of sorts myself this summer. I feel your pain. Maybe we can do a tandem ski in Green Lake next year.
