You're right, ours are toys compared to the ones on those boats. I want to come see the layout, but right now my son doesn't consider it safe (for others) to have me behind the wheel. I've got a brick ramp, lights, cork and a paint pump with your name on it. I'll look for any additional goodies to haul along. Doc said a couple of weeks before stent surgery, followed by another three months of recovery to see if unplugging the clogs is helpful. Might be Spring before I'm sprung, but I'd love to come visit again!
My visit to the Cleveland Clinic was helpful, but they were looking in all the wrong places to find the problem. Go figure! A simple stress test might have gotten to the "heart" of the problem. Telling my local Dr. gal; adios!
