John is still in the hospital, Drew, and won't be out today.  I'll post more as I get updates.

John is still in Grand Junction.  The Docs are now telling him he actually has two broken vertebrae and that he'll need surgery to stabilize the area.  However, they can't do the surgery because he has blood clots in his lungs and they're afraid if they dislodge one it will kill him.  At this point he's resting and they plan to transport him to Albuquerque on Monday to undergo surgery sometime thereafter.  Worse than initial diagnosis indicated.

I know he's in ABQ... I got a text from Jimbo saying that John had been for a ride!

It is time for me to pick 2016 vacation days. Is DITR going to be the 2nd or 3rd weekend in August for 2016?

I have to pick my Prime Time/ Guaranteed Time off tonight. I can take a best guess, I know it is early. The second weekend is 12-14, I am going to put in for that. If the actual dates end up being different I will just have to see what I can do. The next weekend is still open on the leave calendar, but Monday is taken. I could always be sick on that Monday. Thanks for the reply, and no worries if it turns out to be a different weekend.
