Read back up stream -- two days and cancelled. Hotel is cancelled. Dupris is cancelled for both of us. You need to call the campground at Daytona and just tell them about the hospital stay and the leg and give them the chance to do the decent thing by you.

You are not going to Florida to screw up the rest of your mobility. Take your drugs, rest, heal and then you are good for something else later on. Get all bold and stubborn and you can screw yourself up really good, peg leg or less if you do it stone wrong just because you were stubborn.

Remember, I have seen your leg with that great big gape hole in the side of it --- don't lose what you still got from being all stubborn.

=======================================

Dupris is all cancelled for both of us, Hotel up north is cancelled too. You still got to take care of the campground place in Daytona.

I don't understand ...

I can heal just as well in Florida as I can in Tn. So , Where We at now ?

Our room at Americans Best is Canceled
Our camp site at Dubris is Canceled (both of them)
And the only thing we have left is the Camp at Fast Lane ?

Is that correct ?

This is two for two we have canceled out on BadWolf... I'm kind of thinking next time we should just call when we get there !!! Roll Eyes

Yep, and you are healing your leg at home where your wife can watch over your butt to make sure that you behave.

If we went to Florida you'd wind up with triple pneumonia on top of whatever leg issues you are currently swinging.

By making sure you rest, take your drugs and follow Dr's orders we will have the pleasure of your company for a number of additional years ......

....... think of it as a wise investment.

....... 10 hours on the road riding in the 30^o cold just after getting out of the hospital, then walking on his bad leg for 8-10 hours a day while playing rubber neck at the Hurley Burley ...... right

My wife says you sound exactly like me.

But I agree with oldfeller, you need to take this seriously and heal up properly. Remember, we are no longer in our twenties. Sorry you got ill MM. Hope you get well soon. I look forward to seeing the both of you sometime this year.

They claim it takes 7-10 days to heal. And so it shall be.........

Dust off some of the other old plans and propose them again. Here are the old things we didn't do.

Month of April was found to be simply too cold in NC mountains. Not much was open yet as it was still below freezing at night.

In the month of May we proposed a Natches Trace run for the last week of April and the first week of May running on down to the gulf coast where we could hit the various gulf coast rallies.

Ya got Thunder Beach and Panama Beach rallies both taking place in the first week of May.

On the return trip we got a Barcalounger meetup at Suches on May 18 and we do have a confirmed Suches for the very first weekend in June.

Just sit pretty and heal up this month and next month -- then plan something for early May.

rub the creams they gave you on your leg and get better

Leave the bikes alone until you are normal again, and the doc says "you are healed" ! GOD put you down for a reason. Listen to what HE is trying to tell you.

It is March, and the weather is just too cold and iffy in the OH/KY/TN areas to make any plans - every now and then it will warm up enough to allow a short ride.....better be home before the sun goes down and it gets cold again.

April can be very cold and wet - but there may be more opportunity for an occasional ride as the temperatures rise.

May.....there likely will be a chance for riding - who knows?

Maybe we could watch the weather and sneak in a weekend somewhere that doesn't get freezing cold at night? Could be that we decide on a Monday/Tuesday that we could meet up somewhere for a Thursday - Sunday gathering.

Cumberland Falls in KY is less than a 3 hour ride for both MM and I.

For the Cumberland Falls area in KY - April has cold evenings but nice daytime temps.

May in the same area is a bit warmer at night.

I am open to suggestions for warmer/drier areas in April/May.
