The Capt. is safely in port after having had his left knee replaced. Surgery Tuesday 11/4, home Friday 11/7. (They're just not making peglegs like they used to). Mate/Roadie Rosemary who is also physical therapist to the stars is doing the rehab which is really good as we both can concentrate on things like stairs. I'll be doing therapy with her and her team at Palms as an outpatient. Gigwise, I hope to be available last week in Nov.October 8th (0900L)
Sorry for the late update folks but the Capt. & Mate have been busy welcoming
Baby Keala Rose into the family. She is Duke & Mairin's new sister. See picture.
