Tuesday we visited the local surgeon who removed the staples and said I was doing very well and asked to see me in a year.  On Wednesday we joined Gold's Gym for a year because we are going to need it.  It is getting easier to walk every day although some evenings are more "achey" than others.  Jeff stopped by this morning to help me mount the spare in place of the leaky tire on the trailer.  We did find a screw in it.  Alesa continues to paint and work in the garden and  I am looking forward to being able to help.  I am doing some work around the house but am quickly falling behind.
