Re: Recovering from surgery
That's great Jay. Similar to Bill in Oregon, it's two months post op for me (synovial cyst L4 - L5 pressing on siatic nerve). Doing well over here, hope you do the same. Took about a week having to be helped in and out of my chair. Biggest problem was boredom and the not being able to lift more than...

Thought About An Old Friend Today
I'm still recovering from back surgery and was told no lifting anything heavier than 20lbs for 3 months. To ward off cabin fever, I broke out the Lee Loader, blew off the dust, and reloaded some .45-70 for the original Trapdoor carbine. Very therapeutic beating on the Lee Loader with a block of wood...
