The good news is Bruce's wife was able to diagnose and get a treatment plan that not even my primary care doc could! I should be go as new in the coming days and then fully healed with the next month.

I made the list this week … YIPPIE !!! 
Seriously though, it was a good time at the coffee shop, and a great time going for a drive! First time I ever went for a drive with a bunch of Porsches. What a blast. I'm still grinning. Next weekend can't come fast enough.

Sorry I missed coffee this past Saturday, had in-law duties. I will be there this coming Saturday morning. Dell, sorry to hear about your ongoing back issue. Sounds like you are on a positive recovery path with PT. Good to hear.

Next-to-last lap, third session Sunday, increasing my speed through the esses each lap and I was closing on a silver Cayman. I was fixated on the Cayman, and not my line. Car got loose in turn 8, I came off the throttle too abruptly, car slides, I correct, think I've got it, but it came back around and off we go. It's a really bad feeling heading towards a tire wall and knowing your stupidity put you there.
I backed way off the last session.

This is how we guys learns.....we screw up first then hopefully learn from that experience......and sometimes maybe not......some are more expensive than others.......

Wahoo!!!! Looks like I am finally back in the mix again. Back is recovering nicely. No lifting allowed and still have some more PT to do, but I should easily be able to get back in the routine Sat! Probably no driving though as I still have a tough time with getting into the pcar. Will be pimpin' in the 'lade
