Chilling at Caballo Lake State Park. Again.

I shuffled on down here a few days ago to have a staging area for getting my cast removed. Once that was accomplished, I felt an urgent urge to do nothing in particular.

I've had this stuff done at Las Cruces Orthopedic, seeing Dr. David M. Barrera. Dr. Barrera (say it with Spanish "r's") is just slightly cuter than puppies, and has been extremely compassionate and respectful about my uninsured status (say "self-pay"). I've never known a doctor to even concern himself with payment status, and this one asked me directly if I was "okay;" he made adjustments to his charge based on my answer. He also discussed the costs of various options, and was very willing to proceed conservatively. So, two thumbs-up for this guy. More like him, please, if we must use doctors.

I've been waiting to blog because I haven't had the ambition to offload pics from my camera. So here's something I phoned in:

Get it? Because I took it with a phone?


I'm mooning over and around, which is fine if there's nothing in particular to be done. Which there isn't.
