    Slimming down my camp stuff more. Was able to disperse the recovery gear throughout the truck. As far as the spare driveshaft and CV go, I’ll just make the judgement on if I should bring it on a trip my trip basis. For now, planos are retired.

    I wanted to follow up that my hand surgery went well. My surgeon was behind when I got there and of course that day it felt like someone forgot to pay the A/C bill. So they put me in a pre-OP room on a bed in a gown and I had them turn the lights off. After a while they took me to a pacu area, the doc came in and shot my hand up with a local. He hit the bone a couple of times but it might have been on purpose.

    Since it was a local anesthesia I was awake. They still draped and completely covered me. Since I was awake, to keep me from bleeding out, they used a tourniquet. After about 30 minutes the pain was excruciating. My BP shot up to 177/93-94 so when they were at a good pausing spot they released it, controlled the bleeding with suction and irrigation and swabs. When my BP stabilized they cranked it back up and in a while I was done. For the most part the pain meds are keeping things in check but I definitely know when it's time for another dose. End result Mod is 3 screws and a couple stitches.

    And because

    :worthless:







    My wife and I just wanted to say thanks again to everyone for your well wishes and support! We really do appreciate all the Love and generosity!

    It is! It’s nice when breaking down camp doesn’t take forever because there’s so much shit everywhere. Sometimes it’s nice to have all the little amenities, but don’t need them every time.

    Randy the suit pooh with mullet epic. He will never pay his debt on that one. Think we may need to get him drunk and passed out and just put it on him.

    Well...My taco left me stranded yesterday briefly for the first time in my 12 years of ownership... battery died without warning and it was stone cold dead when I went to leave the office last night. I think it senses its' days are numbered and is angry with me.

    Was able to track down a jumper pack and limp to the Toyota dealership a few blocks away. 141 bucks later I was on the road again. Got about 5 and a half years out of this battery.
