Zander has been in hospital the past 12 days and is there maybe another few days.
He picked up staph infection on one of his leg stumps at meet in Panama back in June but did nothing about till few weeks ago. He will be back rowing in a few weeks.
Good luck to my 2nd fav. team.
Get well soon Zander! I'm bad about getting to the doctor myself. Staph infections can be scary. I hope it's all under control now. Thanks for passing along the information Ronnie.

Ronnie, thanks so much for passing along the news. You are in our prayers, Zander. Get well soon!

Great job these last few days with all the amazing meters and rowing power, Team! Way to Go!

Days of summmmmrr....perfect stuff! Baz (pretty sure that his trip is done....re-entry into the "real world: ouch"), Dave, Angelo and Bernie are all enjoying days of fall...

I'm thinking, forget Kevin Bacon, there are surely only Six Degrees of Separation between "us" and Glens Falls, NY ... for me, it's Danno's wife Jeanne; Will S.; my friend's daughter who just moved from Sacramento to Glens Falls for her very first nursing job; Sacramento Kings' rookie, Jimmer Fredette ... and now, Lunatic Kevin (not Bacon) ... Welcome!

Meanwhile, back on Earth, invasions are occurring. Behold the villian mosquito! These heat-seeking, CO2 detector bugs of summmmr seem to have an increased affinity for those quaffing that after row brew....get the nets! get the DEET (or some more human friendly material)! Just avoid the little vampires' bites....
