Guess my memory sucks Steve. I asked this back in early June too. But I can blame it on being an old fart. Born in '39.

Haha, quiet forum. Good morning from Oregon (temporarily).

Question for those that have to register as commercial in Maine, is it really that big of a difference in price from an f250 to an f350? Pros or cons? As a Maine resident, I've never had to register a 1 ton truck before. I'm curious what the difference is.

Hi, we are not Maine residents, only here for the summers. I would call the BMV or see if they have a website that could help you out.

Same as above. They have to have a web site. Every start does.

PT went just fine for me. Have 2 days left Mon and Wed then done. I'm far from "normal" - whatever that is. Lots of DIY therapy at home in my future. I can do lots of things like drive etc. HD work is pretty much still out of the question tho. Knee replacement is lots harder than a hip.

Do as they suggest, BIL got his done and didn't so he has been in pain and walks with difficulties. Its been 3 years or better since it was replaced.
good to hear it's going well.

I am a believer in doing PT after limb surgery so no issues there for me. I know I'm gonna have to continue here at home for a good while longer. Sorry to hear your BIL screwed up and didn't do his PT.

Hard to believe that August is almost over.

It's something you have to get through, sucks at times but we'll worth the effort. Good to hear your doing it and understand why.
I know September is right around the corner, it was slow today at the campground but I'll bet we fill up again for the weekend.
our campground doesn't take reservations so it's a first come basis.
we will be leaving to head south the middle of October.
keep up the PT!
