Get yourself one of these. I have one I use from time to time and that hook is a lot handier than you think. I am going to put some kind of a wrap on mine for a better hand hold.

I'm hoping that with the brace I can rehab the knee enough that I can ditch the limp and get most of the functionality back. But the thought of a hike right now is just pure pain. But I'm only 4 months out from surgery.

Best of luck, and when you do start, take it on the easy side for longer than you think you need to.

I will have no choice but to take it easy. The brace should make it less likely to tear everything back out if I do turn wrong or fall wrong.

I got my baseboards and trim refurbished in my hallway. Looks pretty dang good overall. I do have one piece that once it dries I will probably have to hit a second time.

I've been known to blame a scar on my arm on a monkey knife fight.. Gives folks a doubletake. More exciting than explaining how I lost a fight with gravity... Almost won it though, was going great until I stopped moving upwards and started moving down... wink
