    I stepped out of the boat in Florida and slipped on the dock! Dislocated my knee cap for the last time. Surgery is Aug 22nd and will be layed up for a while. I’d cry in my beer if I drank! This will be the first year in 20 years that I wont get to Lake Erie in the fall. I will have to rehab on a pontoon boat while shark fishing I guess!

    I feel for you Lou. I go in for wrist surgery on the 15th which puts me out of commission until October unless I can figure out how to cast left handed. Good luck with your knee surgery. I have had 6 of them and rehab always sucks.

    I decided to take out the boat the other day. I am sure I looked like a wonderful fool as I rolled out of boat to get on the dock. I am currently inventing a walker accessible boat…lol!
