Washing Luna Rosa
After all the miles and travels, it was time to wash out beautiful trailer. Washed the roof, solar panels, windows as well as rinsed off the bottom (underneath). Need to get the sea salt off. Looking great.

Had my 2 week checkup yesterday with new X-rays. Everything is looking good. My back is healing good, my back is straight and my leg strength is returning.
I cannot golf yet and need to wear my brace for another 3 weeks.
I was able to walk over 5 miles this morning walking the entire village non-stop.

First of all, I am doing great.
We did not tell a lot of people, but I herniated a disk in my back as Pam and I were moving out of the house; actually, a few hours before we closed on the house. Thanks to Eric Aasen, Bob Davis and Barry & Sue Boardman to help move us out and get setup at Willow River State Park.
After a couple of Emergency Room visits and an MRI, it was determined I had an extruded disk (between L3 & L4) pushing against my nerves.
After 48 hours, I had no pain and was off pain meds. But, my leg was constantly numb; I would most likely need Surgery to remove the extrusion.
So, we headed south and started looking for a Neuro Surgeon. We found Neurosurgery & Spine Consultants in San Antonio Texas. More importantly, we found Dr. Albert. He was great. After reviewing my MRI and doing some nerve tests, we decided that a Microdiscectomy was necessary. This is minimally invasive surgery that takes about an hour.
On Tuesday, December 14th, we checked into the surgical hospital at 5:30am, and before noon, we were back in our hotel room recovering. Amazing what can be done as an out patient.
Everything went perfectly, and I am doing great. If I follow instructions, there is no reason I cannot golf with Barry, Bot and Art starting in January.
