Good morning!!!!

Up Early this morning, just couldn’t sleep! Heading to Mass for a meeting in the morning and then back home in the early afternoon. Temp right now is 65 degrees and heading to the mid to high 70’s later on today. Most of this week looks like in the high 70’s should be a good week to work outside.

Temperature right now is 59...the high today is going to be about 80. Maybe a scattered shower or two.

Had a very nice Sunday. My wife's daughter, husband and their little girl came to visit (they live in Washington State). We went to a local restaurant, Tozier's, for lunch. Tozier's specialties are fresh seafood. I had, for the first time in my life, salmon. It was quite tasty. Of course, as usual, we filled up on some delicious onion rings as the appetizer, so we brought some the of main course home with us.
We gave the little girl a ride in the Gator...down on the field (I've posted pictures of the field earlier in this thread). Boy, talk about an ear to ear grin! Her father was holding her tight...and we didn't go too fast. She loved it and so did we.
One thing I did find out...I bulled through that bamboo which I had thought was right on the river. Nope, our property line extends quite a ways further back. It's going to be a tough 'hogging job though when I do run the cutter back there. The ground is very uneven. This is a job I'll put off until the vegetation is down for the winter. It'll still be a rough mowing job, but at least I'll be able to see where I'm going...

72 degrees this morning, gosh, almost chilly.... and only going up to 82.
Off to Philadelphia to see the surgeon early this morning, six weeks after my triple disc neck fusion.
My xrays last week were "unremarkable", always a good medical term.
Well, unremarkable until I can clearly count the eight phillips head screws attached to
me. Hope they used Loctite!
The great thing is that I have way more movement in my neck now than before, even with a hunk of titanium
in me. I was worried about being "stiff necked" (never a good term) but no problem. Sure it feels a little strange, but not
bad at all. So unless I'm told something negative this morning, which I don't think, I'll be able to use the hard collar less.
Still will be a while until I trust my new neck.

And then hopefully off tomorrow to look at motorhomes with the wife. Smaller ones...maybe we'll crack 10mpg!

A new week and new opportunities. Hope you all make the most of them and have a great day.

Roy, I was thinking of you brushhogging that bamboo. Considering what it was used for during the wars,
I hope your brush hog has very dull blades for that job, or you might puncture a tire in a hurry.
I had a miniature pungi stake go right through the sidewall of one tire, that taught me a lesson.
Sharp blades on bamboo might leave you with a challenging residue.

In the case of Southeast Asia, it was dipped in human feces to insure deadly infection as well. Only saw one case of it in action and it was a bad guy, running after he attempted to throw a burning gas can into the camp. He missed, spilled gas up his arms and was running like Speedy Gonzales and fell into one of the pits his guys dug. Not pretty!
