My Health, Picking Up Cam Cards On a Bike Ride and Cam Pics

Friday November 15, 2025 Guerneville CA.

My Health

I’m starting to do better. My meds are starting to kick in. My severe back pain when I eat or drink is way down to tolerable and my itching is d0wn a lot. The type of meds I’m taking are slow to kick in. They kick in slowly, a week or two or a month.

Anyway, now that I’m doing better, I feel more like doing stuff.

Waterfall

I haven’t checked my game cams which are up in the hills for some time now, so I headed up that way on this trail, headed to check out the waterfall first.trail1

I made it up to the waterfall just up ahead and walked on up to it to check for water.fall2

There’s just a  drizzle coming down the fall for now.water3

This is looking at the forest down from the waterfall.woods4

I walked back down to the bike and got on it and headed back down the trail.bike5

Two Pools

I made it to where the first game card was at Two-Pools.pools7

There was this real big edible mushroom just under the camera. I would of taken it with me, but I didn’t have a good way to carry it. I picked up up the cam card from the cam.shroom6

Pond

Next I headed for the little pond to pick up a card off the cam on the tree.pond8

Y

Then down to the Y in the road and got the card out of the cam there, noting the battery’s were dead. I put some new batteries in the cam I had brought with me.y9

I had to open this gate on the way home to cross the highway to get to my place.gate10

Health Report and a Visit With Larry

Wednesday October 22, 2025 Guerneville CA.

Health report

Well, I’m still kicking. About a month ago the docs gave me some meds to retard the eczema and slow down the severe itching and pain.

However when I went to pick up the med, I asked if there was any corn stuff in it. Yes, there was but they said they  had the med in solution form without any corn.

Wrong, wrong, wrong

They were wrong about that, which I found out after using the drug for a couple weeks when my itching got a lot worse, but at least the drug reduced the severe pain a lot.

I’m to get another drug in a couple days which is an injection that is supposed to knock out the eczema which is supposed to work real good. We’ll see.

Doctoring is  a slow process these days, two weeks to get an appointment and then another two weeks to wait for the labs and test to come in.

Larry visits

My cousin Larry who used to live next door to us here came by for a visit for about a week, so we’ve been doing some stuff and went for a ride today in Hondo.

Older pictures

I found some older pictures in the camera of the last bike ride I did with Barry

We rode over to the neighbor’s to visit with Jim and his dog. I saw the dog up there so I knew Jim was close by.jims

Jim was in his shop and came out to visit with us a bit.jim2

We shot the bull for awhile before taking off to continue our ride.barry3

Rest spot

We rode around and eventually made it up to our rest spot at the top of the hill.top4

Visit

From there we headed down to the neighbor’s for a visit. Larry hit it off with the Lady there and shot the bull with her talking about old times.

We headed for home after that.

Nice day.
