Less than half as of today. I drove down to Dave's today to jumpstart this project. We cleaned up the spring hangers, hung the four springs from the frame and rolled the axles in. Made lots more room in the garage.

Looking great Dave!!
All you need now is a motor... or, some pedals.
How's Mark coming on your motor?

Hopefully soon! Between his fire, my work, holidays etc. We fell behind. I think he's waiting on getting more plating together to finish.

My Cataract surgery went well. Prognosis is good. Happy to be home.

No thank you.
Glad to hear it Dave!!
I've got another shield, if you want to cover both eyes
I'm thinking a couple more hours on the tanning bed and you've got Aunt Jamima covered!
What's the post-op prognosis?

Excellent! The Dr. said I should have 20/25 vision in both eyes when it's all said and done.

All is good! Feeling great today and no pain. My judgement is off a little as expected. It's going to be a waiting game at this point. It's going to be a long month waiting to get fitted for a new contact though. It will be nice to see clearly again out of both eyes. 
Dave, the silence is deafening! Glad to see you are focused!
Wishing you a fast 20/20 recovery!
Here Dave. Literally a sight for sore eyes:
