Cd-2One jump too many at Meschutt last weekend.  

Ain't no contest between me and CD (never is).  I have a little tear in my elbow, CD has a ginormous tear in his leg.   Damn.  ("Damn" because CD is really hurt, or "Damn" because I resent CD drawing off sympathy that rightfully belongs to me?  Haven't decided yet…)

Just kidding.    The entire purpose of this post was as an excuse to run a photo of CD (Lord Chimpleton, Chimpus Erectus, "Chris" to his immediate family) with his supremely stoked smile of enthusiasm and stoke.  

CDCD can always get me to smile…I could be laying exhausted on the beach atop a pile of broken gear, and CD would be all "Mike…Mike…how great is this day?  C'mon…you know you love it!"

Lord Chimpleton, I salute you and wish you a speedy recovery (as long as I"m back on the water first.)

Really though bro, heal fast and well!

(Top photo courtesy CD.  Bottom shot of CD with two good legs by Jeff.  The smile remains the same!)

    Wanted to thank you folks and Jeff for posting about my cousin Chris. Hope you don’t mind if I borrowed Jeff’s picture. Wanted to reassure my cousin he would be back in no time. We have the technology! Link here
