After Alesa did her platform tennis mentoring we spent the morning landscaping. We put up a large cage and transplanted spaghetti squash plants under it. We installed our Pig weathervane and an irrigation bubbler by a large firecracker bush we just transplanted.

Thursday was the last Erie Club meeting of the season. It was bunco night with the club supplying subs, chips and cupcakes. This year I had it easy because of my back surgery. I only had to order the subs and someone else picked them up.

We bought an air fryer a few days ago and have been busy testing it out using the original recipes. Some are good and the others aren't too bad but we will have to adjust the recipes to make them better.

Had my Post-op Dr.'s appointment on Wednesday and he was surprised at how well I was doing. Most people come in still in pain and on pain meds. I haven't had any pain for two weeks now. I am cleared to swim, drive and ramp up my activity a bit.

Continuing to heal and feeling well. Alesa golfed with our usual Sunday group this week. She will alternate between platform tennis boot camp and golf each week while I am on the DL.
