    Yup
    Knees and hips are almost standard replacements after 70 these days.
    Why is my body built with a planned obsolescence?

    Turned 46 last Tuesday but still somewheres around 26 in my head. Only thing I admit to is being half deaf. Sure wish I'd a wore hearing protection back then. It just wasn't a thing farming.

    My wife is a x ray tech back home in Wi. They had a lady come in yesterday that got chewed up pretty good by a black bear. Sounds like a couple cubs and a momma bear type incident.
    This afternoon the kid had a tense moment with a grizzly. We was coming back from way up river . Me and dad in a side by side and the kid was way out front on a 4 wheeler. Kid said the griz stood up and stared at him for a good while before dropping on all fours and ambling away.

    Thank you(?). It's a gift. :)

    By the way, it's not stalking. It's called Geopositioning. Geolocation if you use IP addresses from the Internet, and it's just deductive reasoning by use of available information. I mentioned it earlier when @OLDSKOOLERnWV was assisting in the location of that trailer. The problem is that people don't think about that kind of stuff when they post intimate information online...which is a no-no for anyone that actually expects privacy. Former Bill Collection/Skip Tracing taught me that. I think I mentioned then, we used to have to use a paid service to locate people's information. Now, most things are free, and people tell everything about themselves in FB, forums etc.

    Yeah, after years of using local cable radar, I got pretty good at reading it, and that's the most useful for planning outdoor activities.
    The map, I don't know of another map on my phone, I just get Google on it, and I'm used to using Google Maps on the desktop and laptop computers so I became acclimated to using it for those purposes. I got a TND for the truck when they first came out with the Internet connection, and hooked my JetPack router to so I could see real time weather/map while driving, but I use the Smart Phone Google maps so I don't have to breakout the laptop in the truck....when I was driving. :)

    Don't you live not too far from me outside of San Antonio? Or am I thinking of someone else?

    Because if you do, just PM me your # and anytime you need help so you don't kill yourself, you can call me. Im usually never more than a day away from this area.
