Morning all.

Off to figure out what's wrong with my mom's Tacoma. 22R so it's pretty easy to work on.

Went out to the Madonna Inn for dinner celebrating our last night of freedom before the kiddo gets back from summer camp.

LOL Hi ya Larry. Yeah leave the door open and ya never know what kind of riff raff will wander in. I had plans to try to meet up with you on my trip around the country this year but of course that didn't happen. Doc said that if I had taken off on my bike I would probably have come back in a box.

Thanks buddy. I appreciate that very much. Don't know if I'll ever get all the way back but sure am gonna try.

I'll have to say this has been a bit of a humbling experience. You think you're pretty tough and then something like this come along and spanks your *** like you were a toddler. LOL

It is very pink. Madonna pink. Been this way since the 50's. John Wayne was a frequent guest. Lots of famous people used to come here. It has a ton of themed rooms. Had a pretty good rib eye.

I'm currently on intravenous antibiotics twice a day and will be for the next 5 weeks or so. Oh and I still have 2 drain tubes sticking out of my stomach and 28 staples in my chest.

Contracted the infection while in the hospital and the surgeon did nothing for weeks after the surgery although he knew damn well I had it. I had a freaking open wound on mu chest that was dripping pus for weeks.

2021 sucks the big one so far
My goodness, you’ve been through the wringer….twice. I hope you get some relief….wow. Get well soon and let’s go ride!
