Marooned

Marooned - Hi, friend Tales from the Highway, in this article entitled Marooned, we have prepared this article well and concise to be easy to understand for you to read and can be taken inside information. hopefully the contents of the post that we write this you can understand and useful. okay, happy reading.

Well we are still in Las Vegas.

Not exactly by choice mind you...

After getting my MRI and discussing with the Doc it was decided that the best

course of action was to get my knee operated on here in Las Vegas

 so that is what I did.

The surgery was relatively minor arthroscopic - minimally invasive - but 

it still takes you out of commission for a bit.

The surgery was performed this past Thursday.

No crutches are needed but I have this bionic leg brace

that I wear 24/7.

Right now it is locked at the knee so that I cannot bend my leg at all.

I think tomorrow (Monday) once I go for physical therapy they are going to unlock

it so that I can start bending and getting the knee loosened back up.

Today I took my first trip away from the Party Bus.

We walked to the corner and back...    Whoopie!

I think I have to wear it for the next 6 weeks - 

mainly to protect against side to side movement.

I can hobble around a bit but a couple of trips to the corner and back are about it for now.

It doesn't hurt too bad and sometimes actually feels better already than

it did before surgery.  The key is to keep it in motion as much as possible.

Tomorrow I will start my therapy and see how stiff the knee has become.

We plan on staying here for another week - allow me to build up some flexibility

in the knee.   Then next Sunday we should head out to Napa, Ca and hook

back up with Ron and Maxine for 4 days starting Tuesday.

There is nothing wrong with my wine glass holding hand!

In the meanwhile - we are in this nice Motorhome Resort.  It is located right under the 

approach/departure path of Las Vegas McCarran Airport so I've kept busy

tracking the in and outbound flights and getting some pictures of the 

more interesting aircraft.

McCarran is one very busy airport!

Southwest seems to be just about the largest carrier out of here.

Using a new app that friends Carl and Ken introduced me to, I've managed to

catch the daily Virgin Atlantic 747 from London.

Below are two shots of it departing

The next day the winds had changed and I caught it arriving.

Currently this is how I'm passing my free time.

Thank You and Good article Marooned this time, hopefully can benefit for you all. see you in other article postings.
