Done Gone Fishin'



Daughter Stevie, Son-in-Law Fletcher, and Me going for the big one! Had a great time at Bear Canyon Lake, NM just east of Silver City. Everybody caught at least two, although none were trophy size. Didn't matter, we got some fish! Felt great.

Feeling Great

Getting off the pain killers has been easy and now I'm feeling about as good as I ever have. Still have a couple of minor problems, the left shoulder/arm is still not up to speed since the surgery stretched out the nerve and the dry mouth is causing some minor problems while eating. But, all in all, I'd say I'm pretty much back to normal. Certainly feel energized these days. Working out, working hard, and have a really postive outlook. Today we're headed up to the mountains for a fishing weekend which I've looked forward to for some time. We were going to go just before I found out about Elroy and had to postpone, so this is something I'm really happy about.

Elroy was a punk!!!!!
