Welcome to 2014 It feels so futuristic! The year has started off a little rocky for me, ending 2013 with the Very Robot Christmas Show was excellent. Thanks everyone for coming out and seeing the show. Unfortunately I wasn't able to be there for the closing. During Christmas break me and family were in Telluride Co skiing and enjoying the snow. New years day I was skiing an easy run, I was in control not going to fast when i caught an edge and tumbled over. Normally this is not so bad, a regular occurrence for some of us not elegant skiers. he problem was I was close to the edge of the mountain and when I fell I went over the side. Now it wasn't a rocky cliff wall, or like Homer Simpson jumping Springfield Gorge but a steep incline going down into the woods. My right leg was probably broken on the first big fall, then as I tumbled out of control down the hill it kept getting re-broken again and agin. All in I think I rolled down about 30 ft and finally stopped when I hit a deep snow bank. Luckily some people had sen me crash and called the ski patrol. The ski patrol was awesome they had to do some fancy maneuvering to get me down. My right leg had a broken Tibia and the Fibula broken in two places. When I was laying on the gurney in the emergency room after they got all of my gear off I saw my right foot was hanging down at the 5 O' clock position, I don't think it is supposed to do that.I got shipped off to a nearby hospital to have surgery, now I have a titanium rod in my lower leg and a month of crunching around in my future.
This year I have some cool art projects planned and will be loading up the store with more prints an original art for purchase. Keep checking back, and Happy New Year!
