Trip report

Awesome TR snipped.
Dave, I felt like I was there and wish I was.

Joanne, my beautiful wife, fell this morning while walking the dog.
She broke three bones in her right ankle and will be operated on
tomorrow afternoon at 2 pm at Emerson Hospital in Concord. *

Definate drag. See, you didn't have me along to suck up the injury
karma. I hope she's doing much better.

To all:

Surgery was successful. I don't know how many bones are in the ankle,
but the doc said they were all fractured. When my grandson and I
carried her to the car after it happened, her foot was dangling.
Strangely enough, it did not hurt.

She is resting comfortable with her computer and wifi. Emerson
hospital has room service for meals - you eat what you want when you
want it, so she's happy about that. Hope to get her home tomorrow.

Thanks for all your concerns.

So, now you get to play male nurse and beautiful patient.
Unfortunately, you've probably not taught the pup enough cooking to
take the night shift. Good luck to her and you make sure you get some
rest too. Can't help her if you're too tired.

Thanks for the TR.

Sorry to hear about Joanne. Hope she gets well soon and that you
wait on her hand and foot in the meanwhile....

I for one am sorry to hear about your wife's misfortune
And if I were you I would do as suggested above
Being married sometimes can be a chore but I do find it worthwhile

All in all it was a pretty good trip. I would rate it after Alaska,
Kamchatka, and Labrador, but still very exciting. The big draw is the
large browns and lots of them. Also, air fare was reasonable and the
price of the lodge about as low as I've ever seen. The logistics and
the possibility of a diy trip will be addressed in a separate thread.

Joanne, my beautiful wife, fell this morning while walking the dog.
She broke three bones in her right ankle and will be operated on
tomorrow afternoon at 2 pm at Emerson Hospital in Concord.

First and foremost, Godspeed to Joanne. We've never met, but she must be a
jewel if she takes care of you....

Great trip report. Sounds like a place to put on my someday list.

Do you mean it didn't hurt you or Joanne :-)
