2009 (Jan 19+) Rotator Cuff Surgery : I  took a fall while snowboarding on Aug 10 at Coronet Ski Resort in New Zealand.  Four days later I took another fall while heli-boarding.  By the end of the 10 day trip I could barely lift my right arm.  In the next few months my chiro worked on it and it got better, til I took two falls hiking mid Oct (slipped on snow-over-ice and landed with my arm forward, then marbles on dry fall and landed on my butt/hands).  She scheduledd an MRI. I got results the day I left for Australia (Nov 4) and had my first appt at Kerlan-Jobe for surgery the day after I returned to CA (Dec 3).  With holidays and vacations, surgery was scheduled for Jan 19.  They did a great job, and so far I've been pain free (it could be the drugs, stopped taking them Jan 23).  It will be a long recovery.

Growing up : Mom and dad gave me some old photos to copy, so I took digital photos of them.  The photos were curled so it was hard to get a good clear picture.  When I have more time, I'll work on it.  For now, they're fun to look at.

Aug 2007 New home in Hawthorne, CA : SnowDude decided in Nov '06 that it would be cool to sell our home in Torrance and buy a brand new condo (no repairs).  We could walk to work, walk to REI, Trader Joe's, Spectrum, and less than a mile from the freeway.  We each save 5 hrs of driving each week!  We put our condo up for sale, it sold in a month.  Dad let us stay a a vacant apartment he had from Apr-Aug.  Now we're move in!
