The Rest of the Story

[wesfrye53]

For those of you who don't know me, you are probably wondering why I haven't been posting any finds. In June I had surgery on my right knee to remove a piece of "floating" cartilage. This past Wednesday I had surgery on my LEFT knee to repair torn cartilage. The pic below shows why I'm not out MDing every day...or every weekend. or even at all!

Let's hope for a fast recovery Wes and get out there and find some good stuff, oh by the way, I can see the comments coming now on the leg and footwear!

Dang, that makes me cringe Wes. Hope you heal up fast and true.

 

[Cynangyl]

that leg doesn't look elevated! PROOF you are not doing what you were told! Whatever will we do with you?? lol

 

[Cubfan64]

Sit yourself outside on the grass in a chair with your leg elevated and have the family toss coins around you while you're blindfolded - gotta keep in practice

Get well soon!

OK, so what did you do to the finger? Why do you have duct tape on it? Elevate it and put some ice on it and behave yourself .

 

[wesfrye53]

Leave it to CG to spot the duct tape.

I have a small seed wart there and believe it or not, duct tape for 3-4 weeks will make it disappear. What would we do without the stuff?

 

[CarolinaDigs]

Wes hope the recovery goes fast for you. Blessings your way > CD

Terrible what rotten ham can do to a person....

 

[wesfrye53]

One of these days you're gonna slip right offa that broom Gypsy....but since the ham didn't bother me I'll be there to catch ya!

If the ham had bothered me...you'd be bouncing all over the place til your pointy hat stuck in something
