At the last race of the year I took a fall and injured myself. I went to the emergency room and was released with a copy of my ex rays and the advise to seek a orthopedic doctor.It shows my right knee cap is broken. Dan is on crotches also from this race.

10/17/2011 (Monday)

Found a doctor Nichie in Lacy Twp. He said that I should of had surgery in the first 12 to 24 hours since this injury. He Scheduled me for surgery on Thursday. My knee is broke and he is going to put it back into place.

10/18/2011 (Tuesday)

Although the x-rays showed nothing in my left leg It keeps giving out on me and Dr Nichie prescribed a MRI.

 Surgery was a success and the doctor gave me the results of my MRI. It appears that the Meniscus is torn. So I'm sure once this right leg is healed I'll be having the left leg repaired. I haven't been to work as of yet but I hope to have a return date when i see the Doctor on Tuesday the 25th

Saturday and it's starting to get old. Looking at the sunrise through the front window knowing I should be on the beach is a little depressing

Went to the doctors the other day 10/25 everything looks cool. Hopefully they won't have to do surgery on the left (good Leg). On a side note Danny went to the doctor's with me and he left with a cast on the right foot it seems he has a couple of bones cracked.

Yea I'm still here here sitting on the couch. I feel good hopefully when I go back to the doctor in a couple of day's he'll let me walk again. I have to say that my wife has been absolutely great to me during this whole time. Thank you my love

Still here I had a fall the day after thanksgiving and it scared me. I'm walking again with crutches and hopefully the other knee is OK.

Went to my companies x-mas party two days ago. I'm feeling pretty good lately. I'm taking steps with out the crutches but only a few at a time. I'll fill ya in more after my doctors appointment on the 27th

He's going in to fix the ACL and some other crap that's broken in the left leg. O-well here we go for part two
1/12/2012 
The Doctor MR Jason A. Nitche went in on this date and put in a ACL from a ca-diva ( A dead persons part shop. Kind of like a human junk yard. ) Fixed my MCL by stretching a piece of calf mussel where the MCL used to be. Hey at least it my own parts. Then He cleaned up the meniscus. I guess that had a little tear in it.

I'm here and this shit is getting old. I went to the  Doctors on Tueday 1/17/2012 and everything looks great. Wow this is one painful thing to go through.

Went to the Doc's last week 1/24/2012 he took the stitches out. So I've been home for the last week waiting for this not to suck as bad. Guess what it still sucks. Hell it's only been Two and a Half weeks since major freaking surgery what the hell do you expect.
2/9/2012
Well, I been going to physical Therapy since the doctors appointment on the 24th. I'm walking around now using just one crutch and by god I'm starting to see light at the end of this tunnel. Looks like I might be better  just in time for spring.

Jessica Marching at Seaside

Had the company picnic which really isn't a company picnic. It's really just the owners giving the people a break on a Friday and feeding everybody and there's beers also. It's kind of cool that they do this for us a few times a year.Then Saturday we went to seaside to watch Jessica marching in the parade.Sunday was apple picking I managed to get a little riding in and did some much needed repairs on the KLR and the ZRX. The KLR got a new old shock and the ZRX got a ghetto fan switch.  Wait I might have the days all mixed up because I took off Monday and went apple picking Monday o-well what ever I'm not rewriting this. Peace out a fun relaxing weekend it was and that's good enough for me.

Race Weekend

Friday was a nice relaxing night. Me and Sherrie went to the high school to watch Jessica in the half time show. She really enjoys being in the squad. Then we went and had (I know your not going to believe this) ONE DRINK at water street.
    I guess that's why I was able to wake up early enough to go watch the Sunrise at the shore. It was a little cloudy but the Sun rose on time either way. It's nice when you have to depend on nobody being late to ruin your date with the sun. If she's scheduled to be there ow she's there. I think I just prepped the motorcycle for Sunday's race the rest of Saturday. I some how managed this ritual as some type of man right on race weekend.

    Sunday was the best day of the week the 8th race of the year was taken place at the Cumberland Fair Grounds. We raced this venue one other time at the beginin of the season so I was comfortable as to what to expect so I thought. It turned out the race was a mud feast. I got a great start and was running second the whole infield of the race track. I was quite happy with this even know I dropped back to finish 18th out of the 36th people in the senior class. My friend from my Job Doug Zeibro also races and I beat him and that made me happy along with beating Tony. I considered the day a success.
