In this video, I do a bit more work on this 60 year old Supercharged V12 Detroit Diesel 2 stroke powered dump truck named Wally Wabco. This truck had been retired from its duties and sitting for 20+ years in a Quarry before I rescued it late last year. I also give an update on my how my eye surgery went and thank everyone for all the well wishes. Thanks for watching, Bruce.

Eye surgery can be life changing-I had what doctors called rapidly forming cataracts which went from nonexistent to level 3 and 4 in 14 months (4 is the maximum measure); long story short, I was 54 years old at the time (56 now) and as I am currently, I teach high school English and do electrical work during summer months-so I need my vision. My interocular lenses were both replaced and my vision was completely restored. I was shocked at how bright the sun, moon and stars really are-what a blessing! Cheers!

Glad to hear your vision is back. I live in the states and have had my share of eye problems too. In one eye I had a torn retina twice and something called a macular hole. To top that off I'm blind in my other eye. needless to say, through modern medicine, I have been able to keep good vision in my only eye. I too had to lay head down for 4 weeks after the macular hole was repaired. When I was about 30 years younger, I had a congenital cataract removed in that same eye. I'm about 67 years old, have good eyesight, have my own auto repair shop, drive and carry on a normal life. Thankful to God for His care and good doctors!

So very pleased your eye surgery is successful. My late mother had a detached retina in her late eighties and it turned out great. My wife had two ops for cataracts recently and can see to read without glasses. Please continue to take care and not push yourself even when you feel good.

The eye surgery update was just magical to hear. “The blue skies” got me. I like how he wouldn’t go to Brisbane. A man has to know his limitations - Clint Eastwood. Oh.. by the way. The frog wasn’t hurt. Classic side bit. thank you Bruce. A man talking about losing his vision and he tells this nugget. I don’t think it’s coincidental that he got his vision cured. We can all use some vision improvements.
