That's not a stick....It's branch (grin).  It's good to be able to laugh with you again.  How are you feeling?

@andy-bruner 

Most days I do pretty well at adjusting to having only my arms and head to put to use.  Too many doctor visits, of course.  Have all of investments to still manage, including the farms and the cattle.  We're at that point in life where we must decide what to pass on to the next generation or two in the most tax effiecient manner.

I'm still reviewing surveys for several counties and have a very few that still go under my signature.

Thanks for asking.

@holy-cow Drop me a text at 404-992-3164.  I would like to keep up with the fellow who was born on the same farm 1,000 miles apart.

@holy-cow Keep grinding through. It is men like you who inspire the next generation. My uncle was hit by a volunteer fire fighter when I was 19 in his driveway. He was one of the driving forces in my life on living below my means and love for those 4 legged bovines. He was pretty bad off flight for life’s legally blind and continued started all over in cattle after a couple years of all the therapy and such. The trauma blinded him so my aunt and his hands where how he chose his stock. My aunt still keeps few head to this day. He did this for 25 years past the accident. He and I living multiple states apart had many phone conversations as I was finally to the point of starting my herd. Use that great mind of yours to pass that knowledge onto to others like you do here. You never know a grandchild or great grandchild might just remember that little bit and inspire a new generation.

You can't change the people around you, but you can change the people around you.

Historic boundaries and conservation efforts.

@gary_g 

I tore a meniscus several years ago and wore one of those flexible knee braces.  It took about a half a day for me to figure out how much the little springs inside was messing with my pin finder.

@gary_g  It happens.

I volunteered on an archaeology project, looking for an early historical trading post that dealt with the natives. Our first task was to do a surface scan, flagging any unnatural objects in 10-meter squares. After those were counted and collected, we went over again with metal detectors.

Most squares had a detector hit here and there, maybe a half-dozen per square. One team ran out of flags placing them a less than a meter apart in all directions. The project archaeologist asked me to confirm their hits. I couldn't, until I walked over and checked the other guy's boots. Yup.
