Happy 4th of July!

We are heading up to Estes Park tonight to stay with Connie, Stacey and Danny at their cabin. I cannot wait to get there. Today dragged at work, no one is here, just doing clean up stuff now, wasting away time. Half hour to go....

Went to PT as scheduled on Wednesday. Had another really good session doing exercises with Kate (biking, shuffles, more weight machine mixed with balance stuff, good stretches, wall sits - holy cow, I kept realizing there is no quad muscles left when I got to 15 seconds of a 30 second sit). Then Erika did all my measurements (got to 132 degrees flexion; still need 2 more degrees for full extension) and then she stretched and massaged me. Her little trick with the plunger is awesome! It doesn't hurt like the regular massages, but I know that it's completely necessary to do that. It can only help me, so I try to just go to my happy place and relax. One of these days I will be dropping down to once PT session a week, just not sure when...

Have a great 4th of July!

Hope you had a great weekend in Estes. We haven't planned anything for the 4th. I've got some ribs in the fridge that I might get out and cook up on the "barbie".

Love, Dad

Yeah, I think I will throw some ribs on the barbie also! And since I live around the Granby area, I'll have to be burning something or shooting at it. See ya all soon and have a safe 4th.
