Post-holing in the snow

I had surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff on March 1st, so I couldn't do any hiking. In fact, the initial injury about a year earlier put a damper on some of my outdoor activities, as you can see from the drop-off. As of this writing, though, things are progressing well, and I should be getting out a lot more during the Summer of 2004
