Since Friday...

On Friday evening there was a ladies' meeting, so several of us guys headed over to Gary and Gina Stonehouse's place for a burger burn.

Saturday found me once again at the Wellsville soccer field, watching another one of Joey's games.

Well, watching the game wasn't the only thing I had done Saturday morning. Soon after arriving at the field, I went to throw the frisbee and it landed on the roof of one of the covered pavillions at the soccer field. Well, I am rather fond of that frisbee, so after engaging some help to pile a couple of things together to climb on, I got up on the roof of the pavillion.

Getting the frisbee was no problem, but getting down was another story. Since the edge of the roof was only 7ft or so in the air, I decided to jump. Well, the following pictures show the aftermath. When I hit the ground, my left knee popped. It felt just like the first time it happened in a soccer game back in Ketchikan. Here's the result...

After the game I had to go to work, so I spent all day hobbling around on it. To make things even more interesting, I had a piece of exercise equipment delivered to my apartment, so I had to take my lunch break and help them get it in my place.

This is what I picked up. It's called a Weider Platinum and uses a composite bow for resistance (well, that and some pulleys) so I'll be able to do upper body workouts safely. The particular unit I got is a couple of years old, but was available for a fraction of the cost.
