Man the lightning here is like a wick to bomb right now. Big flash then explodes.

Great, probably blow my bird feeder house off the totem pole I expect. I just stocked it.

Damn dude. A new knee. It must give you fits if to have to replace it. I hope you have better luck than me with my back. Merry Christmas early.

White...from Utah to Idaho for one day. I know you border, just seems like a long drive from SLC to Idaho. lol

It's about 1 hour and 45 minutes away. Not too terribly bad.

My Mother had hers done years ago, and VERY happy that she did. Friend of the family had it done within the last year. Neither had complications that I recall. Surgeons must have that procdure down pat, highly successful without complications. Leaves a scar though lol.
