Suddenly, It's Winter Again!

We've had a remarkably mild end of Feb, first 2 weeks of March, with the temp rising as high as 70 for several days. Up here in the high country, we like to pretend that means it's spring, doing our best to forget that April is often the heaviest snow month of the year. Snowing again now…sigh…

Yesterday was my first day of physical therapy after my 7 weeks of forced inactivity to allow my quad the best change to restitch. I got the go-ahead last week to start PT. The PT session was a mild one, compared to the ones we did on the first go-round after the September surgery, but last night was…long…as long-unused muscles screamed their protests. Very loudly! I expected it, and today I'll start regular specific exercises. Plus, I was cleared to use the stationary bicycle, my number-one tool for building up leg strength…of course they were adamant that at least for awhile, no more than 10 minutes at a time. Still, a milestone!

I'll be on GUN TALK with Tom Gresham this Sunday…you can listen in on Sirius/XM…mostly we'll be talking about AMERICAN MARKSMAN, but, hey, politics could slip into the mix!

This week's "Best Defense" was excellent!

Thank you! I have learned a lot over the last 6 months, disproved a lot of my own long-held theories...
