At the size these are cropped to, I could have used a K-5, but, it's nice to have some crop room.

Lovely series Norm. Well taken.

Can I assume from some of the angles that you have photographed from, that you are a bit more mobile now? The hip and knee recovery is going well? Hope so mate. Cheers.

I walked more than 2 clicks, then came home and pulled a 200 pound generator from the back of the RAV, assembled it and took it over to my shop, my right side is probably only half strength, but it's coming along. I slept all night without pain killers , like even Ibuprofen or Tylenol, 3 times this week. So I'm already much better than before the operation.

Excellent.

By Christmas you should be almost back to normal movement and sleeping. I'm a little concerned about you throwing around the 200 pound generator though !!!
