Annual visit with my hip surgeon.
This was the one year later visit. All is good as x-rays look fine. He said keep up the good work walking 10,000 steps per day and playing golf. No need to come back unless I feel it needs to be looked at. (actually, both replacement hips look fine).
Worked on shed foundations.
I was going to take my Tesla to Albuquerque for some minor bodywork to the rear end after backing into something. I planned it so I could make the almost 8 hour round trip during daylight hours. Too much game is migrating to chance driving after dark right now. I left shortly before 8 AM, less than 20 miles from home a mule deer committed suicide on my vehicle while I was going 70mph. No time to brake, I saw it jumping into the road right as it hit me and flew up in the air. I thought it was going to come through the windshield but it flew into the empty other lane.
I was able to get the vehicle home and I am patiently waiting for the adjustor to call. For some reason I'm still shaking.

Thanks.Glad you are OK. One thing you were lucky it didn't come through the windshield. Those low to the ground vehicles front ends are a good scoop shovel.
Got my first deer ever! With a bow. Long time friend coached me. Shot him at 25 yards. Good times!
Wow, that's awesome, congrats! I tried bowhunting for a couple seasons, but didn't get an animal. Sure have respect for the skill it takes, having to get so close then drawing and getting off a shot without spooking the critter. Plus all the practice and bow tuning required. You certainly earned that meat!
