Trish, Good luck on the surgery. You may not be able to do any caching or speaking for a while, but we will look forward to you keeping us updated on the "listserv".

Well, after our 5-day, 22 cache trip to Reno to visit Dan's brand new granddaughter (yup, she's a doll!!!) and his folks, we are slowly....ever-so-slowly..... creeping up on our "sesquicentennial" total cache.....and "centennial" AZ cache.....(I have alot of out of state, mostly Nevada caches)....BUT....as I am having the surgery on Wednesday (major throat rotor-rooter for obstructive sleep apnea) it looks like I won't be hitting any milestones for awhile, DARN! Anybody have any experience with the UP3 surgery? It is extremely painful for a full 2 weeks post-op, I am told and read. Trisha "Lightning" Prescott
