April 16th marked my 5 year 'anniversary' of when I broke my back. oddly enough it was a Wednesday and sunny just like it was today. Without saying too much now, it was a great day of reflection... i had a moments with Jill at the local skatepark in Lancaster, one with dad, one with mom, one with the owner of the bike shop i worked at, the guys at the bike shop (Drew and Todd), with the barber who cut my hair the day that i was hurt and with caleb as we went to see lucero play in kentucky...

i suppose all i really need to say is that i'm blessed to be where i am today and i hope that everyone reading this realizes how thankful we all truly should be for each and every day.
