Thanks fellas I have racks on my Jetta wagon. Gonna mount saddles its low enough for me to load. My Jeep JK is to tall so wont be using it till I am stronger
Go back to Dr Feb 7 hoping to get clearance to use yaks. C6/C7 was fused in Oct so I have to pass xray and get Doc's clearance

Easy Grasshopper, those Yaks are heavy as you know. Don't be in a rush. You don't get many chances on those necks. Just a concern fellow broken neck dude looking out for you:-)

Just trying to get ready for my return. Go see doc Feb 7 hoping for more privilege's. I haven't even got to start PT yet. so its easy access fishing and float tubing for now. Probably get access to my inflatable's and center console before outback. But I can start getting my new to me car ready for it.

Thanks for looking out for me you know what I am going through. Hard going from active Fire Captain to cripple boy. And my ADD not helping DR's lets take it slow

I know its tough but I have been thru this crap most all my life. I have done more damage by doing stuff I'm not supposed to do. I do it every time. I'm up to 14 surgery's now and there will be more. So I have no room to talk. I have been afraid so many times that this is it I'm down for the count but I keep bouncing back. It has allowed me to talk the wife into some pretty good fishin trips in the past so you might want to work that angle:-). I think she's over it now. I've got my fair share for sure.

Good luck I'm sure we fish together soon
