What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

[AzScorpion]

I luckily got to see them playing in Hawaii at the Aloha Stadium back in 1995. Me and my ex wife just started dating back then, and she took me instead of her friend .

Now that was true love....or lust. lol

That must of been a great show. There's only a few bands I missed that I regret not seeing and Queen was another one. Freddy really put on a great show and Annie was lucky enough to see them back in Chicago.

It was an amazing show!! Only weird thing was watching them play on the big screen above the stage due to the slight delay in sound. After a few songs I just focused on listening.

Well with all this Eagles talk I probably should share this story - my wife's aunt called her last Friday and asked her if she wanted tickets to the Sphere show. Apparently a friend of her aunt's was planning on coming out here in March to see them, but got a notification on his phone that his tickets were ready to be picked up on Feb 27

So, she ended up taking a lady who volunteers at her work that is an Eagles fan while me and the boy ate pizza and played video games

Who buys Eagles tickets at the Sphere for the wrong day? lol. Look at these seats!

Just out of curiosity I looked up the ticket priced for the show there. The cheapest ones I saw were $364.00 and the average was around $450-$500. As much as I love the Eagles no way I'd pay that much especially since Glen Frey isn't there now. My first concert was Boston back in 1979 with Sammy Hager backing them up and tickets were only $8.50. Man how times have changed!

Packed it up with my gear for 4-9 March North Carolina adventure. About 8 hours each way so 2 days travel and 4 actual adventure days.

Have a good trip! Make sure you give us plenty of notice to when the 5G fish fry will be.

Don't be alarmed if you see a bunch of us there when you get back. Some of us are retired too and are looking for a new house to trash party at.

You’ll be the first person to be arrested for graffiti using 303. House is gonna be so shiny.

Work. Stopped by and visited with Dad and Uncle Jim for a little while after work. Then a grab and go at Pizza Hut for a large pepperoni pizza.

Lights are on it's cloudy and getting ready to rain. Pizza for everyone lol!
Everybody, make it a good one.

Took a road trip to pick up our new trailer! Well, new to us anyway. My truck pulled it no problem on the way back. A little bouncy but that might be solved once we get some stuff in it and weigh it down. If not, I might get some air bags. We’ll see how it tows once it’s loaded up.

May i suggest looking into the RAS products. Road Active Suspension. Did wondoers for towing with my ranger. Grumpaw uses it too for his travel trailer. Really makes the truck more planted and with less sway. A torsion hitch makes a huge difference as well. HUGE! I use the GEN-Y Glyder hitch for my trailering needs.

Just checking in with you Gregg to see how your surgery went? Hope all is well and everything went smoothly for you.

Oh, don't worry about your Ranger it's just fine. Mrs Gfitz let me in to your barn over the weekend and I installed a few parts on your tailgate to help you out a little bit. Also, Me being a good friend I brought your Mustang back with me to AZ because it looked really cold and lonely tucked way back in the corner. Don't worry I didn't drive it Annie did. She had fun learning how to drive a stick (first time ever!) and got the hang of it by the time we were in New Mexico. There was a dent in the right rear corner wasn't there?

Well all in all things went pretty good. I survived the two procedures, 4+ hours on day two. Three and a half weeks post surgery and I am sporting a fairly restrictive back brace which I will have for at least three months. One week in the hospital and another In a rehab facility for some physical therapy. One of the hardest parts was surviving nurse cratchit . We butted heads from day one. I will admit that I am not a very good patient, mostly because I have very little patience. The pain that I was having before is mostly gone. The surgeon said I would have some new and different pain. He was correct. I have an aversion to pain meds that contain opioids so I am getting by with Tylenol. And it is working well. Now it is in home therapy to be followed by more outpatient therapy. I am optimistic for a good long term outcome. I haven't driven yet, so the Ranger is still hanging out in the barn. I will drive next week, probably to a car wash since there was still some salt on it when I put it up. Lots of core exercises every day and I am seeing some improvement. Recovery is a marathon not a sprint. And I have some new hardware to show off.

Glad to hear you're doing well and getting better by the day! You're right the PT is tough and I'm like you and have very little patience (and I'm a terrible patient, just ask Annie lol) but it helps when you have a really good therapist. Living in pain is no fun and hopefully when all healed you'll be better than before and pain free.

That's some hardware you have there! Are you still planning on going to the beach next month for your R&R?

Is a torsion hitch the same thing as sway bars? The guy gave me a hitch with a sway bar setup but it was way too high and I didn’t have tools to adjust it there. I ended up just using my normal drop hitch so the trailer would sit level on the way home.
It towed straight and didn’t have any left to right sway at all. It was just a little bouncy when I would hit bumps.
