I finally had my MRI done yesterday. Laid inside of the machine and listened to it buzz and beep for fifteen minutes and for the rest of the day my upper teeth/jaw hurt. You can’t have any metal in there but does it affect teeth fillings?
I spent last week in Tulsa, Ok at the ABABMX (American Bicycle Association Bicycle Moto Cross) Grand National races watching my youngest daughter race. This is her 11th year. Saw a lot of old friends and made some new ones too.
She is riding as a team member of Bombshell Bicycles and her points standing is high in her class so they traded her old bike out for a new one free of charge.
She qualified for Wednesday’s Race of Champions and did pretty good in her class.
3711 riders had pre-signed for the Race of Champions and there was a long line at the registration trailer signing up that morning. I don’t know what the rider count for the Grands event that started on Thursday and finished late Sunday evening.
I hope everybody had a good Thanksgiving.
I’ll look that up Ray. Sounds interesting for sure.
My bone spur is still there. The insurance apparently knows more about medicine than the Dr. so they denied any MRI and told me I had to go through physical therapy for six weeks first. The therapist put me in traction twice a week for three weeks with no relief from the spur and told me to go back to the Dr. Now the Dr. is trying to get the insurance to approve the MRI since I didn’t go through the full six weeks. Three weeks cost me $240 in copay. I’m thankful I’m not on the govt healthcare plan anymore or I would be paying full price of $1200. I hope I get something done in the next year…….or two…..or….
On another note I went out for a woods walk and changed the cards in my trail cameras. Found a few rubs and a couple of scrapes. As much as I want to I won’t be hunting this year. Dragging out a deer would not be possible with this bone spur. Dragging out the doe I shot last year was an excruciating ordeal and I wound up taking the tailgate off my truck and using it as a ramp to finally load her up. I’ve devised a winch set up to load deer now but still won’t be able to drag one out of the woods. Looks like my weapon will be my Nikon this year.
The bucks are starting to chase the does here. I had several videos of them. Here’s a frame grab from one of the trail camera videos. Two does bickering over a choice Bur Oak acorn.
I need to take some lens cleaner next time out. These cameras have been hanging for 3-4 years now. I’m surprised they still work.
Here’s another shot of a rub with my Remington Model 41 .22.
With all the talk about not feeding deer for the fear of CWD being transmitted we now have a deer corn vending machine.
What happened to learning how to hunt instead of how to bait?
