It's been a while since my last post, but feel the need to participate in this shindig. I was invited to attend because I'm also a gimp in a wheelchair who once was a climber. It makes me sad to hear about Tom's injury, but happy to maybe make a new friend. My buddy Steve Belford gave me Tom's number a month ago and I finally got the courage to call Tom last week. I don't know him personally and wasn't sure how he would perceive some lame ass dude calling him out of the blue. The conversation started out nervous for me at first, but Tom said he was glad to talk to me and I was at ease after that. We are both in a club that nobody ever wants to join, in it because of some accident or something beyond our control. I miss climbing and I’m sure Tom does too! I’m looking forward to meeting Tom in person at Todd Gordon’s generous fundraiser/party. It will make us both feel like climbers once again.

Your pal,

Steve Muse
