Damn…. On the first day too.
Wife twisted her ankle sheer steps from San Diego Comic Con….. We got her a wheelchair tho haha
Huge bummer 🥺❤️🩹
This is kinda funny weird but my dad’s brother broke HIS ankle in Sequoia our first night years ago at our campsite.
We were in lodgepole though, and I believe he stepped in a downhill hole and twisted and well-snap.
Sequoia seems like a bad place for ankles lol
Glad you’re OK random lady
Adorable you poor sweet thing. You have to laugh! Or else !!
Damn! But at least ya got to do a little
