Bobby D!!!!

bobby sent this to me via surfapig@live.com:
Hey Mike, Hope things are well. How's the Grom? I plan on coming to
San-O on that Saturday To meet up. I'll bring my flexpig, the pig
I made and I think I'm gonna make another one. So maybe 3 of them.
I showed the picture below to my prosthetic guy and he was stoked
and told me he'd have a water leg made for me within the next 2-3
weeks. So I should be able to get my self in the water without help
by then.... My friends Danielle Burt ( an above knee amputee who
shreds) and Summer Romero took me out in the water for the first
time since my amputation on Thursday. I took my Model T out and
not my Pig because I thought it would be wise to have a leash with
having only 1 leg. The picture below was on my second wave. The
first wave I tried kneeling and it hurt my stump way too much so I
decided it was wiser to stand on one leg. It was a killer time, and
it was like learning allover again except with a little more of a
challenge, I only have one foot, haha. I'm gonna put some more of
the pics up on my blog later tonight. Take it easy brother, and
after I get my water leg all dialed in and I can drive again I can
meet you and Gene up north to take out my flexpig for the first
time. Cheers,Bobby D
