Frankenstein

Difficult run.
Only one of the top breathtaking parks on my list.
And now, also, the scene of an epic life adventure.
On Thursday i went running on the lovely trails with two deardear friends.
Afterwards we decided to take a dip in the river to cool off.
The water was perfect. The view magnificent.
We began climbing over to one of the waterfalls.
When.
I took a slip.
And had the luck of landing on a broken beer bottle.
And getting this.

What a beautiful gash.
Being stuck in the middle of the river we had to think fast on what to do.
Joan was kind enough to offer her sports bra in order to make a tourniquet.
We then proceded to clamber back up the rock to the trails
rush back to the cars
stop by a fire station to get the wound packed
and finally make it to an ER to get me stiched up
Now, it looks like this.



I've decided that stitches are one of life's biggest nuissance if youre ever lucky enough to get any.
No pool.
Awkward showering.
Awkward running.
Awkward biking.
Basically. I can't wait to get them removed.
