    That was the place where I had my first underage drinking experience when I got to go to the field the first time building the paper mill there

    Bringing in a big impact crusher the next week or so from Boise- 61' long 134,000lbs. I'll try and get pics if I'm around and it makes it up the hill.

    Ever have one of those moments where you realize that you’re stupid? I figured out what caused the foot drop. I went to sleep with my left leg elevated and the weighted blanket. No support under the foot.

    When i was a kid and went cruisin around town with grandpa in his old 62 , hed say its time to turn on the ac, its to dam hot. That meant roll down the windows :D . None of the turn signals and brake lights worked so he used old school sign language. Probably get pulled over fer that nowadays. funny enough as a child the heat didnt bother me much we still spent everyday outside no matter what.. kicks my ### a good one now

    Do try a massage. Around 20-25 years ago, I thought I was developing a clubbed foot. (The old campfire story of Thump/Drag always pops into my head) Turns out it was the early signs, before I got diagnosed with it, of Fibromyalgia. Muscles that wouldn't relax on their own. I had no feeling in the bottom area, because all the ligaments and tendons were rock solid.

    I ended having 4 sessions of massage specific to that foot as a last ditch attempt to "cure" it. The first session had me groaning so loud they had to put a towel in my mouth to keep from scaring the other customers. After that, they came up with a piece of wood wrapped with leather for me to bite down on. Believe me, it was painful...but even after that first session, I could feel some tingling and sensation coming back into my foot area. The focus was almost exclusively that foot, although leg work and low back was done also as a prelude to the foot. I don't know if you have what I have, most men didn't historically get diagnosed with it, as we most of the time palm it off on pain, old age..etc, but the condition is well known now, by most newer medical personnel.

    If I'm wrong, you've just gotten a relaxing massage, but do try it. Your workout routines and weight training, may be the cause, as mine may have been, before I found out about the Fibromyalgia aspect. It was a shot in the dark on my part back then, but now I understand it.
    :headbang:

    Edit: Well, posted before finishing reading again....but the Massage is still a good fix for what is ailing you, and may help get the movement back sooner. :)
