We would love to come. Here is the lizard in the stew so to speak. Ken has 1 good day, then must rest for a few before he can function like himself. Seizures are the other thing that is concerning. Lastly, when he gets over tired talking becomes an issue. We would love to go to Tonto Basin. I’m willing to take time off works it would be one day that I would miss.

Well, discuss away and plan on me picking you up as I come through the Valley if you think it is do-able from the standpoint of your health.
If Judy can get away also, I'll still drive.
The Campfire folks would sure like to see you at Tonto.

I’ll be driving IF we go. Brenna will be joining us as it takes 2 of us with Ken on his bad days. We are letting Ken decide. It’s up to all if you to convince him he needs to go.

Here are my concerns,IF I have a TIA or a massive seizure I am 40 minutes or so from a hospital. To get there would take longer as you folks would have to get me in a vehicle,so that would be a bit past the "Golden Hour."
Also,my stamina is not what it used to be. For instance,I helped out in the pecan orchard yesterday for two hours and the rest of the day I was napping and I had small seizures i.e. my right hand shakes(like when you're cold) and trouble communicating.
I would love to go,it's just that I don't want to miss a bunch of fun because I am napping or just not feeling up to it. Then it cuts into Judy and my daughters fun cause they have to watch me,or someone else while those two are having fun.

Ken, We would love to have you. We all understand your health concerns.
If you do decide to visit, do not worry about someone sitting with you, as that is what most of us do anyway... Sit, talk, eat and tell lies.
We'd all love to see you, Judy and the daughters if you can make it.

Well, shoot, I'll not be able to make it as my wife is having hip replacement in about 2 weeks. Docs say no driving for her for 4-6 weeks and I can't leave her out here by herself, 15 miles from town with the dogs , chickens and a pile of firewood to heat the house with.
Once again, I'll have to wait another year at least.
I'm going to have to give back my HAM tag down there in Unit 18 too. Not sure if I got the point protection this time, if not, I may donate it to Hunt of a Lifetime for some youngster to use.
Ken, be sure and take as many pics as can comfortably do. I need to enjoy the show...............vicariously.
The rest of you animals, take care of Ken and his family.
