Last night I didn’t sleep well. I woke b4 7:00AM alarm. I had the morning planned out w/ time to manage. First up was return visit to DR Pico to check the packed hole in my back. The nurse pulled out the wick. He determined there was more gunk in there to remove. He numbed me up and went at it. He feels that he cleaned it out well enough. Sometimes they come back. The cut is about .5″. The packing keeps the pocket open allowing the wound to heal from the inside out. This cut is painful. The hydrocodone I have taken do nothing to cover the pain. Even my home medication fails me.
Next I drove up to Flag to Discount for a new pair of tires for the front. I drove it a few feet in the parking lot and noticed that the steering was much easier. The drive around town and back down canyon put a lot of fun in driving my tissue box on a roller skate.
There were several things I was shopping for in the downtown funky stores. All right on RT 66. Came up empty.
I made a red curry dish for dinner. I pulled the recipe from a Men’s Health mag. Second time I made it. The coconut can had a recipe that I will make to use up the remaining 1/2 can.
Ride tomorrow.
Driving 89A thru West Sedona I notice quite a few mtn bikes on rigs or being ridden. Not as much as Moab but enough to accept them as being the norm.
As of 3/20 I have ridden 248 times and 3149 miles in Arizona. I have spent the most time stayed any place in AZ. That’s because of the weather being mostly good and the rest of the country experiencing winter and early spring storms. Here very few days are lost to bad weather conditions.
