operation --- yet.  I feel fine and walk around the house and go up and  down the 
stairs.  Since they did both knees today, I have not noticed any  issues with 
either one.  I have to wear a leg wrap on each leg for a while  --- anti blood 
clot procedures.  No blood leakage around the knees  either.  They did give 
me crutches to use, but I do not feel I need  them.  I just blast around the 
house normally, but better.  I don't know, may be the worst is yet to come, but 
so far everything is  cool.  I am taking it easy and really not overdoing it.
 
I think I will start hiking down at the park next week and with a pack in  
two weeks.  Then I can start getting ready for the 2008 campaign.   Some folks 
want me to go back to the Grand Canyon and hike in February.   And Can'tQuit 
wants me to do some PCT section hiking with her too - Pieces might  be on part 
of this expedition too.  Also, I want to go back to Mt.  Whitney and do some 
Section A hiking around the April Kickoff.   So, the 2008 hiking calendar is 
rapidly filling up already and it is not even  2008.  I will just have to see how 
things works out. 
 
Cheers, Switchback the Trail Rascal
