Sorry to here about your fall, catch. Maybe next time you come upon a "crick", maybe it would be a better idea to walk along the bank until you come upon a creek, or a stream, or a brook to cross. Why do you think they call neck pain a "crick"?

Sorry for your luck, add another ten years and it sucks even more! Been working on this shed and the wife has been helping me a lot too because she is worried I will fall off a ladder and kill myself.

You fell because you're clumsy, not because you're old. Try not to fall next time. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ is this your neighbor..or brother- in-law .....or just another mean person on T-Man ....lol Lol you knothead, he's another knothead. I fell because my left leg is shaky and weak now. They tell me I need another surgery but I don't want them cuttin on me again, they didn't help the first go around. And it's just me, I'm alone 99% of the time. And thanks Pawnee, that made my day!

Catch let me tell ya, that more than once did I have a few choice words when I again found out that they keep this gravity thing switched on 24 / 7. Tripping over dock lines and cleats is an area I have perfected. Just read my signature below and you will know that you are not alone.

Keep moving Catch, I'm amazed to hear you are just only 53. I keep diggin Les, 53 with high mileage. That fall took me out, won't be able to hunt tomorrow and I could use one or two more in the freezer.

Jeff, I hope you make a quick and full recovery from your fall. I'm only 49 and having problems this week too. I jumped across a little, seasonal spring on Monday to get to the buck I shot. When I landed a tendon on the outside of my right ankle made a loud pop. I think I tore my peroneal tendon. My right foot had felt weird and sort of flat for about a week and a half. When I landed, I believe I popped something else back in place tearing the tendon. At least my foot feels okay again. My right ankle hurts. My left hip is hurting worse from favoring my right ankle, when I walk. I dragged the buck out and got it skinned, quartered and in the fridge before having Diane ice my ankle. It got huge. I had to skip hunting Tuesday and Wednesday. I had Diane wrap my ankle and drive me down to within 50 yards of my stand yesterday and today and pick me up when I was done. I hope you are able to get back to hunting soon. Don't forget we have a second gun season on 12/21 and 12/22. Keith

Keith, you got a ugly ankle and your ankle modeling days are over lol. Thank you for the well wishes. I was blessed to hunt with a old friend on his place Monday. It stoved me up and yesterday I got out on State ground. Now I'm down again, on the couch with laptop on my lap, hurtin lol. I will be out there hopefully for the next go around and muzzleloading season.

Hey catch at least we're still looking down at the grass. I'm only 38 and I'll use a walking stick in a minute. I've got a bad knee, that gives out in an instance. At work a shovel doubles as a walking stick..when needed.

I am 39. I fall down all the time on bare ground. Some snow would be nice to break the fall. But I jest There was a time I bounced off the ground when I fell, now I stick. Getting old sucks.

53 is an awesome age, catch22!! (Same as me) Injuries suck, and so does getting a little older, but we got this, right?!! I ran three half marathons this year, and ran on an 8 person team in the omaha to Lincoln market to market relay. That last marathon was my 20th completed. I'm no spring chicken but I can still muster 9 minute per mile pace over a whole 13.1 mile race course. On shorter 5ks I can still hit 8 minute miles but it's too hard for me to keep an 8 minute mile pace up for a 13.1 mile race. That was a younger me that did that. Yessir... we are too young to be in this shape. Hope you heel up soon and get back out there! We got a lot of life to live yet! Jim These were my 2019 races..it was a good year. I logged almost 1,000 running miles this year, training and races. December and January are for trapping and recovery. I'll start training again in february 2020. Lincoln marathon in May Grand Island marathon in august Market to market in october Good life halfsy marathon in Lincoln, november You are truly only as old as you feel. Go get em bud!

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.
