The back is better!!  Well, not 100%, but close.  It is still a little stiff.  I survived Aikido last night, so that is something.  

Jay and I met for coffee and karate.  His pup was in surgery for a foxtail so I headed to his end of town.  Surgery went well.  

Another hot day, stay cool….more later..

My back seems to be almost back to normal.  Maybe Aikido tonight.

Sue and I took dinner by R&B's.  Had a good chat with Ry.  Beth is out of town.

I was able to crawl around under the table on the MR&TRR.  Still working on the down feeds (electric work).  I was able to get a couple more terminal blocks placed….more later..

I thought the back would be better by Tuesday but it fooled me.  Maybe today.  We are going to venture off to the gym , the first time in over a week.  Keep those fingers crossed….more later..

I am still recouping from the back, so not a lot going on with me.  I think I will be back in action by the end of the week.  Sue on the other hand has been real busy.  She has gone through all the bricks on the patio and scraped out all the grass that has been growing between the cracks.  Then she resanded it with polymer sand.  Finishing up in the back she then did a little work out front.  All is looking real good….more later..

Busy weekend.  After Aikido on Saturday Sue and I headed across the street to the annual neighborhood gathering at Barb and Joe's.  The old guard was there, fun to catch up with them, but the newer neighbors were a no show.  Too bad, as the neighborhood evolves.  

Then on Sunday we had a gathering of the 64 card players for one last time.  Jim and Ellen have sold the house and are headed to Georgia.  They took both games, Jim the first and Ellen the second.  This means "Champ" the clown trophy will be heading to the Southeast, may he send more joy through 64.  Lots of hugs and a few tears to see long time friends move on……more later..

Happy Solstice!! The old back is feeling a little better today.  Maybe I'll be up for getting back to the gym tomorrow.  One more day of rest.  

Jay and I met over coffee to talk karate.  It sounds like we have a couple of new students, a mom that wants to do something with her two kids (22 years old, and 14).  Let's see if they come back on Monday….more later..

It was Blooms' dinner day.  Sue made up a scrumptious meal that we took over to their place.  We had a great chat, made some arrangements with Max and KK, and talked about their quick trip to the mountains last weekend.  Great visit….more later..
