    and said that all went well with my surgery. So I guess as long as everything continues down the straight and narrow until next year I will live to make another round-up.

    They found a bunch of stuff (bone spurs and stuff like that) in addition to what they already knew about once they got in there and could see what was going on, but they were able to remove most everything and get my pressure levels on my spinal cord pretty much back to normal. Of course this is all coming from what the Doc. told my wife and mom and dad. so I am hoping everything went as well as what they said the Doc made it out to be...

    Anyway Sitting here is tearing my back up so I am headed for the recliner. Take care I hope everyone that travelled to the round-up made it home safe and sound as I did. For those that knew about my surgery ahead of time and said a little prayer I just want to say thank you.

    Glad things went well, Dennis.

    Thanks again for posting the link to your Kodak pictures with my Drag-N-Fly---until I get home I can't post any pictures.

    I'm on my way home: In WV for three days, and now in Nashville. Tomorrow in Tunica, MS for a little one-arm bandit action. Saturday night, we will be home.

    Glad to hear that your surgery went well. We have never met but I can empathize with your pain. My back is all messed up too but I'm not a "good risk" candidate for surgery. After three years on Methadone I have decided I would rather put up with the pain than be an addict. No meds - just white knuckling it.
    I hope you heal fast!
