>>Most folks my age think a walk to the mailbox at the curb is half a days work.<< Very true. Sounds like 80 is treating you pretty well so far Gene. I sat down at the barbershop on Saturday and starting talking to the man next to me about the wait. He paused and said, "how old do you think I am". I had no idea, so I said, 72. He laughed and said 94. That is my son getting his hair cut and he is just getting ready to retire, so I'm starting to feel old. He said he just had to give up driving after having a small stroke. (Which didn't seem to slow him down.) But he didn't like that since now he was dependent on other people for transportation. He still lives on his own. I hope I do that well!
