Never was drawn to ice fishing and since I golf all winter when its above 40, I’m hoping for a January thaw soon.

Mine too.... My body, not so much.

Recovery moving along. Hole in chest is healing over. Sore shoulder as I got the PCV 20 pneumonia shot yesterday. Breathing easily. Very short stints on exercise bike to work the lungs as the lobes figure out their new orientation and how much blood and oxygen to deliver where... I feel like a newborn foal just getting up on its feet and figuring out what it can do.... Not strong yet but figuring out how far I can go. This procedure has taken me from a failing V8 to a V6 that needs to be broken in... slowly. Just following the rules here.

Snow is coming down good here on North Shore of Boston. Already surpassed the forecast coating to two inches and it is only 0750 with snow for most of the day predicted here.

Did I miss something? What’s going on?
