Sorry for the lack of posts lately.  I was down in Florida filming with my son, Turner, Dr. Brian Boxer-Wachler and Olympic Gold Medalist Steven Holcomb. This was an amazing opportunity to get these 3 individuals together.  Steven and Turner had a condition called Keratoconus with is a condition that weakens the cornea and allows the cornea to lose its shape and go from a basketball shape to more of a football shape.  The change in shape degrades the vision badly.

Steven had 20/1000 vision and was able to completely restore his vision through the work of Dr Brian Boxer-Wachler and then went on to win Olympic Gold.  I found out about this procedure through Steven's book, But Now I Can See, which is highly recommended.  I made contact with Dr Brian's office and made our appointment to get Turner to the office. 

We defeated Keratoconus.

I was so happy to see Turner spend a little time with Steven and talk to him about all things associated with the condition and the recovery.  In addition, he was able to head to the gym with Steven.  How many times does anyone get a chance to workout with an Olympic gold medalist?

I hit a bunch of decks of cards while on my trip.  The guys crushed at the garage.

Today was my first day back and the weather was an uncharacteristic thunderstorm at 5 am.  Believe it or not, only one person showed up, Mike Drew.  We tore through this one with thunder, lightning and heavy rain outside.
