Thank you @tangmo!
I have accepted that injuries are likely to happen more often now as I am getting older. At the same time, as I keep going, moving, and work hard I notice that my mobility range also increases and overall gets better. Down the path I probably will have to replace bunch of joints xD but such is life. Maybe future advancements will give me a brand new robot body, haha!
I am crafting a natural solution with garlic, onions and mint water in spray bottle, to scare the caterpillars away. Hope it will do the job.
I am glad you found these photos refreshing. I certainly felt that way after the walk.
