My Own MacGyver

JEM went skiing the other day.

He went for a long ski since we have to do the Gatineau Loppet this Saturday (yikes) and have to train.

He was about 10km from the parking lot when he fell going down a hill and landed on his pole. Oops.

How to get home?

1. Take inventory of possible things to use to fix pole.

2. Take out Buck knife that you packed even though your wife mocked you for it.

3. Decide that the top part of your sock would be the best bet.

4. Cut said sock apart.

5. Tie pole back together.

6. Ski home.

MacGyver lives in my house.
