Tim, how is your back feeling? I am sure your procedure went well and I just didn't read the post...
No procedure. Back is getting there. Standing is difficult, walking is easier than standing. If I sit for more than 10-15 minutes I have to loosen my back up before walking around and then I'm just walking "gingerly" but walking.

Ok, as promised. Some pics that are terrible! Lights were going to turn off in 5 mins and I still haven’t figured out this iPhone camera! I will get more later once I Google how to use it better. I even used a filter and it would look fine, but then autocorrect to what you see…it’s OVERLY blue.
