Some honesty is called for here ... I was actually just looking for a free ride to / from the trailhead :lol:

btw My conversational skills are pretty good - I can describe hospital food in detail, how to operate a bedpan, and I promise not to show you any of my scars :oops:

No worries, I'll (mis)manage

Also, please promise you won't show us how to operate the bedpan... :shock:

Dunno, bedpans are pretty difficult to operate, no? :shock:

Just wanted to say again how wonderful my friends are. Great big hug and / or whack on the arm (as appropriate)

One year ago I would never have guessed I would be climbing again .. ever.

But yesterday I did (see my new user profile pic).

Thanks to all my friends and everyone on SP who wished me well. It is really appreciated. My deepest gratitude !

You deserve it all Rob!

Congratulations and welcome back!!!

You have been and will continue to be in my prayer's.

Now get your ass over to the Alabama's so you can have an "Official" voice in the matter... :lol:

Hey, that looks a lot like Castle Rock (State Park, not Spires - save that for next year).

Good job!

A remarkable journey indeed Rob.
Many would have given up and sat in a wheelchair till their death, but not you. I am truly awed by your spirit, what you have gone thru and how you have over come the incredible odds of that type of injury.

Keep up the good work and I'd be proud to tie in with you any day.

Good eye, Bob. We went to the Underworld, at Castle Rock State Park.

Not only did Rob climb, but he had no trouble on the 8, and 9, little trouble on the 9+, and made a valiant effort (with bad beta from the ground) on the 10a. Pretty Impressive!

Even when I saw you just a couple of days after the accident, I felt / knew you would be back. Awesome job!!

Joel and I are planning on Herring Creek Dome on Labor Day. Interested?

Well done Rob. Now, let me know when you'd like to go back to North Peak for some ice.

Salut.
