Ken had a bad accident on his bike two weeks ago. He is very competitive- against himself. He has several different routes that he likes to use, and he keeps a record of his times on each of his routes. Two weeks ago Wednesday, he was hurrying to beat his time, and came around a corner too fast. There must have been dirt or sand on the road and his tires slid out from under him. He fell hard. He brushed himself off and rode home, not realizing how badly he was hurt. His leg looks the most dramatic as it got a huge hematoma that drained and made his ankle swell. But the worst injury is to his shoulder. It still hurts to lift anything. The xray showed that it isn't broken, but something is definitely wrong.

That is a nasty bunch of bruises! Hope his shoulder heals and he can enjoy the back pack trip! He is one tough and determined guy! Looks like he will be seeing some awesome views of nature's beauty!
Good grief, Kay! When we were over there last week, you didn't say anything about Ken's accident. That's a painful-looking bruise and he's a trooper to head off on a back-packing trip! We'll put him in our prayers.
Ken and Tom have a lot in common. You can't get them to slow down. Tom did his 24 mile death hike last Saturday while recovering from a bladder infection.
