Quarantined and a torn rotator cuff aka terrible shoulder pain... no problem! Hike with a friend who has been isolated as much as you have, who believes the virus situation is serious, and who also is willing to help with the basics (putting on/pulling off my backpack and raincoat, tightening my straps, and even creating my ponytail!). Drive up an open forest road in the middle of nowhere and hike on a couple of lesser known trails. That's how today went! I finally got back outside doing what I love so much!
It rained... the sun shined... it got dark... it THUNDERED
(yikes)... and it POURED! Crazy weather with very wet, muddy and sometimes snowy trails but I had a smile on my face the entire time! It was a GREAT day and just what I needed to help me through... it was an "altitude adjustment".
Life is good again.
