hey there bill, say.... just saw the newest news on your ol' foot...
oh my... but still,l even if you feel you may heal fast:
take care... you want your foot to be strong for a lifetime... not just the antsy "missing time" ... :)

keep getting well...

and do this fly tying stuff, for sure... sounds like a good past time...

say, capt. as to this quote:
Do what I did,learn to tie flies.
good advice, and constructive too, and---something you can later enjoy, not only as memory-markers, but as to a well caught fish, hopefully...

say, now, bill, get busy and artsy (ooop, being a bit pushy, i am, huh?)... ;))
god bless...
:)

Dang!!

Let the hurdles stop you not. Go forth and gather all the healing you can find. Rehab your foot well my son, and return to the spires in the sky!

Excellent news! I'll be very happy to sign my name in that register again but the next time on top of the spire instead of in the gully.

Jim, I'm out for 6-8 months but I'll be sure to let everyone know when I actually make it up that spire.

Yeehaw DD and RB! Just got a few summit pics, as I'm sure others did, but I'll let them post up a full TR in time.

"Would you like some Gatorita, my fine Senorita?!?"

"Full Value" Castle Rock Gatoritas

 Cuervo Gold (rot gut Agave as a substitute)
 Powdered Lemon/Lime Gatorade (3.5 oz packet)
 Consolidated snow from gully between The Fin and Castle Rock Spire
 Cocktail Lime Salt
 16 oz Nalgene bottle

Pour tequila into bottle (12 oz level). Add Gatorade packet into bottle, close the lid and shake bottle for 30 seconds. Reopen and add consolidated snow (the dirtier, the better) till contents reaches the 16 oz level. Close lid and shake contents vigorously for another 30 seconds. Open lid and add cocktail lime salt to rim of bottle.
