      @bobbyspence4697 so glad you enjoyed it! I'm finally back in two shoes, and helping my foot re-learn how to walk (especially down stairs). Amazing what we take for granted. If you aren't subscribed, I hope you'll consider joining us. Happy adventuring!

      @bobbyspence4697 thanks for the sub! PA is definitely convenient and worth the drive from NE Ohio.

      @@jeepinandexplorin thank you! I must admit, I really did want to just sit on the couch a while longer, but I'm glad Bill talked me into it. I'm finally off crutches and out of my orthopedic boot, but I'm betting I'm a lot more careful in the future. Two feet are so much easier than one and a peg leg.

    We absolutely love that site. Can't wait for the next video. Hyner View is amazing. Some amazing sunsets can be seen from there. We are originally from not too far from there. We grew up roughly 45 minutes from Renovo.

    Get better soon. Can you give some tips on getting around with your crutches?

    • @JourneyBeyondOverland
      @JourneyBeyondOverland  15 днів тому +1

      @wadehamlin thank you! I hated regular crutches, and found something called the I Walk 3.0 after a colleague mentioned trying a peg leg. It was awesome (though my doc was a little skeptical). You do have to have good balance on your good foot/leg, but it was easier to use than I expected. It's also the only mobility device (crutches, scooter, or peg leg) that I could use to get in and out of my lifted jeep on 37s without help. It did great, even in snow and ice, but inclines/declines meant taking tiny steps and I had to walk down stairs backwards while holding the handrail. Does that help?

      @wadehamlin if you have good strength in your arms and don't have to carry anything, I agree. My arms are super whimpy, so even short distances at home were hard for me on crutches, especially when I wanted to carry things with me. How long will you be on crutches?

      @@buscampers so sorry you didn't get to enjoy that view! We found two more sites with pretty good views this time as well, but they still don't match this one in Sproul. As for my foot, I got to wear two shoes to work for the first time since September today. Now I just have to remind my foot and accompanying muscles how to walk again! Thanks so much for asking.
