It is a very grey and raw day here in Central Massachusetts. I had to get up and get to Worcester for my post-op appointment with my knee surgeon. He told me that everything is lined up properly on my new 70 to 75% improved left knee. After all, he said in so many words, there will still be some pain because we're not 15 anymore and nothing could be done about your aching muscles and the bursitis. But now I am free to drive. I said, "Whoops! I've been driving for almost three weeks." He just looked at me. Then he said that I should take two Advil and come back and see him in two years. That is, unless I decide that I can't stand to stand on my 95% bad right knee and then I should come back sooner. Two years is fine with me. I am happy to hear that all is lined up correctly and in place. It still hurts a bit especially at night and I will be going to physical therapy until Christmas Eve. Then I should be free to live my life as I want.
But driving into Worcester today was just kind of depressing with all the grey. I decided that when I got home, I would go back to the Isle of Capri for a little while. I could use a little color in my life.

and really good news on the knee! bad girl on the driving... :)
I know. I'm not that good at following directions.
Well, if you can get that kind of colour from a grey day id love to see what happens on a colourful day. I love that boat and seascape. Beautiful work as per usual.

I'm happy for you Barbara, that your knee is in good shape and where the doctor wants it to be. Hopefully the pain will subside with time. These pictures are so beautiful and full of colour. That striped boat is really pretty. Have a great weekend!
Awesome colors....and again, congrats on the knee....I bet most people would have been driving
Glad to hear you are on the mend. These are very colorful - so tell me, did the boat make it through the rock opening?
I am not sure. We didn't stick around to see. But they probably did go in a ways and bavk out. Thrrr are so many little coves there. It's just beautiful.
LOL! I like a doc with a sense of humor. Glad you got a good report! These are great photos! Lots of color. The third one is wow! And I love the lighthouse!

it's good you are driving, you were able to report to the doctor that that has been going well. now he doesn't have to worry ;)))
Oh these beautiful images would cheer anybody!! These are all just eye candy, so bright and colorful!! I just bet that was the most glorious vacation. Good news about your knee..I strongly believe in the power of Advil (!). Thanks for brightening our gloomy, dreary day.
