Lynn, like I said, I was doing LIGHT hiking, so yeah, I think I could. In a

little while. And yes, you will feel that good too!

My hip surgery (LTHR) will be this coming Monday 4th Aug., at Poriyya

Hospital, Tiberias, Galilee.

My post-surgery hiking ambitions don't rise to the Alps or Appalachians -

simply looking forward to hiking my local Galilee Hills with my dogs!

Luckily for me, my hip hasn't been too painful recently, so I have been able

to keep up daily short walks in the forest and hill trails right up to now.

But am looking forward to longer hikes with my new hip!

I find Nordic walking poles very helpful - they are very light-weight

titanium, not meant to be weight-bearing like crutches; but I find them very

useful to help me keep balance, stability and symmetry in my walking,

especially on uneven and hilly ground.

Wishing successful operations and good healing to all of you undergoing

surgeries about this time - and good hiking afterwards!
