Well, I had my hard earned vacation to Leavenworth this weekend. Took lots of pics. It was beautiful. I loved every second of it. Maegan and I went on this big shopping spree, then we took a carrage ride through town, and then had a really nice german dinner. Gah! So good... Anyways, on our last day in town, we decided to go snowmobiling. It wasnt that expensive, and we had enough money to go so we went. We got all suited up, got on our own snowmobiles, and took off with the guide person at the front. We were riding for a good hour when we came to this hairpin curve. Now, on all the other curves, the guide would signal to slow down, but not on this one.. she decided to speed up, so I did thinking it was another small curve in the trail. Nope! Just as I get to the beginning of the turn I see that I need to hit the break or Im gonna roll, so stupid lysdexic me, hits the throttle instead of the break, and I fly right off the trail, down a small cliff into a deep ravine. I would have fallen further if it wasnt for the three trees I smashed into. When I landed, the snowmobile landed on top of me and I got knocked out. When I came to, I had enough sense to shut the engine off, and then push it off of me. I noticed my right shoulder was hanging at an odd angle and quickly found out that it was dislocated. So, I had to pop it back into place, and it was my screams that ensured my survival because the guide and my friend couldnt find me in all the snow and stuff. So the screaming drew them to me. When I finally became conscious enough I crawled up to the side of the cliff and tried climbing up. Nope, didnt work. So I had to have the guide drag me up and put me on her snowmobile so she could drive me back to the place. I slipped in and out of consciousness on the trip back. It was kinda scary. When I finally got the snow gear off and all, I noticed how much damage it took. My helmet was cracked across the top where my face had smashed into the snowmobile and broke the windsheild off of it. My goggles' lens were broken inwards, and my snow suit was ripped up from where the branches had caught me on my fall down. There was a huge lump right between my eyes (Which is still there), both my eyes are black, I have tons of bruises and scrapes all down my body, and my right arm is in a sling because of my dislocated shoulder... all in all... I say damn it to hell.. why didnt I die? cry I got the first half of the week off of work, theres no way Im working like this... hehe... well, that was my weekend guys.. whadya think? heart
