Back in a New York Groove

May 26th, 2009 by woody

Well, my hike on the AT was cut short by a knee problem. Had the first DR’s visit this afternoon and will see the specialist tomorrow morning. Hopefully nothing too serious.

The bottom of the iPhone screen became insensitive to touch, so I was unable to post anything from the trail or resopnd to any comments. Thanks for the comments!

I’ll work on posting the day-by-day of what happened.

Btw, Bird is still on the trail.

Hope you got in a lot of good hiking before the knee went south. I’m channeling my Christian Science grandmother and assuming that your knee is fine.

I hope your knee turns out to be OK… I am really glad you’re back. Now I don’t have to spend every day worrying that you’ve been eaten by a bear…. or listening to Alarik wonder aloud if you’ve been eaten by a bear. So just take it easy and get better. See you soon!!! PS> I’m really glad that you weren’t in fact eaten by a bear.

Holy crap! Sorry to hear that but glad you were not eaten by wolves. You wearing a brace? Maybe consider a bionic knee. Too bad about the iPhone, too. That’s a bug and a half.

Too bad about your knee injury. The terrain on the AT can be steep and put a lot of pressure on the joints, especially with a heavy pack. Glad you’re getting medical attention and hopefully can rehab the knee quickly.
