I had mentioned hobbling down forest paths and using a cane to climb on top of rock formations during our recent birding vacation to the beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I even remember soothing my aching foot in the cold waters of Lake Superior. Berry was always sympathetic.
Because it was slow to heal, I had my sprained ankle ex-rayed and it turned out that, when I crunched down on it in Charlotte, NC. I broke the "fibula" bone. The tip of the long bone on the outside of my left foot snapped off.
If you know anything about bones, here is the ex-ray. Be assured. I am fine. I had walked on it since May 1 to June 13. That couldn't have been good for it, but birding superceded physical pain. The foot is being treated, now that I know that it actually was broken.
