Eversole Elementary in Hazard, Ky., in 1978. This play stars me and my sister on all parts and was recorded in our downstairs bathroom. Enjoy

The surgery went better than expected, but I have many weeks of rehab before me. This bodes well for my future basketball aspirations… after all … I still have four years of eligibility remaining.

So, let me thank Dr. Darren Johnson at UK Sports Medicine for his sense of humor and his skill as a surgeon. Both are quite cutting. As parting gifts I got a nifty tee shirt and a Cryo Cuff and a now half-used bottle of percocet. Drug abusers beware: I have three dogs and a 38 within reach.

Apparently my injury was the result of too much butt kicking at work. It just wore my knee out.

As we Bereans say … “onward and upward.”

Back in my cockpit

It has just 7,500 miles on it. It’s been way too long since I have had the daily joy of riding with the wind. Close to Berea? Let’s ride.
