<VV> Leg update and another thank you.

Hey guys and gals,
I went to the Dr yesterday, and he removed the cast, x-rayed it, and stuck me 
back in another cast... still "non-weight bearing", so I'm still off work... 
he said don't even think about going back to work for another 6 weeks. My next 
appointment with him is on June 20th, at which time he will take another 
picture and consider having a brace fitted. I'm getting sick of these wierd tan 
lines... this new cast is about an inch shorter than the old one... so it looks 
like I was halfway under a tree when I got some sun this last time.
I have no idea if I will have a job to go back to when the Dr releases me, 
but Cheryl is telling me not to worry about it right now, just concentrate on 
getting better. Now with the girls off school I have someone here to talk to, 
play cards with, and fix me sandwiches.

I found another stash of parts I'll be photographing and putting on eBay, 
including a Corvair piece, Group # 4.355, GM# 907930, NDH Ball Bearing #47207CUI. 
My P&A 30 C says it's a main drive gear bearing for 64 4 spd., and 3 & 4 
speed for 65-69. Some of the other things are some NOS thermostats for mid-1950s 
MoPaRs (still in the Harrison Radiator Division boxes), a wheel cylinder kit 
for a 1953 Chevy truck... and a fuel pump repair kit for what might be a mid-to 
late 1950s large GM, say Buick or Olds...
Again, I want to thank everyone who sent some money to help me out. Since I 
haven't been to work since February bills were really stacking up, and your 
compassion and generosity has certainly helped to relieve the stress.
Thanks guys... Oh, and an update on the glowing GEN light on the 64... we (my 
girls and I) went to Leitchfield for the flea market, bought some Amish baked 
goods, found a 1964 KY license plate for the car for fifty cents, and the 
girls both looked at the farm animals. It ran flawlessly there, and on the way 
back, as I was getting ready to shut it off here in the driveway, it started 
glowing again... just a little glimmer, not bright... I've not tested anything, 
but I find it strange that it didn't glimmer at start up or during the drive 
through all the traffic...
Well, you guys take care, and thanks again!
Lonzo
