Coronary surgery and big bore shooting
Glad to hear things went well. Make haste slowly, as this stuff does take time to heal. The Road Glide sounds like a blast. I prefer the four footed kind, but what the heck. I like the "less Thor-like hammers" thing, and am seriously considering that myself. Somehow, killing an elk with a pinpoint shot from a 7x57 sounds like fun. As far as that goes, thumping one with a 375 was fun, too!!!! Remember, you've dodged the cardiac bullet, but life has other bullets too! Getting old is the shits, but it beats the alternative, for a while at least.

Hello, Gentlemen.
It's been almost two weeks post-op for the heart surgery.

I'm still sore and not sleeping too well, but I'm HERE!
We're going to get out a bit and do some walking today.
The heat has been miserable for the Pacific Northwest, and it's kept me from doing as much as I should or would like to do.

They repaired my mitral valve; used a 'MAZE' procedure to re-map the electrical path in the heart; and sewed up a pocket that could potentially collect blood clots.
So far, I'm not of the need to take Coumadin or such things.

As would figure, I'm already planning on changing my inventory to less THOR-like hammers; and I've decided I won't wait to get the Harley-Davidson Road Glide I've wanted.
Life's too short! Wink
I may have to reduce the inventory and work some overtime, but I'll be able to 'SHOOT & SCOOT' in style!

Thanks for the good wishes!
