Ah, come on Chris. With four busted ribs - two clean in two - I was back 
on my horse at six weeks (and I was counting the days starting at four 
weeks). Did I ask my MD's permission - of course not since I knew what 
he would have said ;-) . I took out my most steady horse and took it 
easy but you know the soul needs a little "chicken soup" every once in 
awhile.

I even bet that Dr. Q wouldn't listen to his MD and maybe not even his 
wife (although he has a responsibility to tell you to ;-) ) about 
climbing back aboard.

Take care and get well, but.......... As Winston Churchill said, “No 
hour of life is wasted that is spent in the saddle.” As Shakespeare 
wrote in Henry V, “When I bestride him, I soar, I am a hawk: he trots 
the air; the earth sings when he touches it; the basest horn of his hoof 
is more musical than the pipe of Hermes.”

Truman - who can be so bad sometimes.
