hmmm the Fifth decade, or could you actually BE old, like 70 or

was

Dragged the OLD body out on a snowshoe trip yesterday. Glorious in

Hey thanks Kristin, now that I know he is older than I am, the whole deal
takes on a new light.
I should probably let him stay a pound or two under me, respect for your

Here's one hint - I have a friend who is 63 and he can hike me into
the ground. And another who is over 70 and can, at least, keep up.

Actually, I believe that I have mentioned my age before in some thread
long ago and far away.

ha HA!

Well, I have a few hiking buddies that are in the 60's and one is
close to 80 but I really do think genetics plays a role in folks that
age still hiking the dickens out of me. Both are in what we call
Mountain Rescue and go to help hikers/climbers who have gotten lost or
injured. They are incredibly fit. I'm 56+ and do okay for a pudge
but nothing like them. Even in my good days!

I did a google search... This was in Joyce's "goal" thread from
February. Sorry Fred!

the advanced age of 55, since I do also love "older" men, Fred is probably
too young for me.....

Well, this morning was not as good as hoped.

But you really have a great chance in about two weeks - we have our
work "employee recognition breakfast" early the morning of WI. I will
be dressed in jacket, tie, slacks, etc and will have breakfast and
then head to WI! Not a great situtation unless I can sit with 300
others eating breakfast and NOT eat breakfast!

But maybe it is time to just let you have it as I would really hate to
be the one to drive you to desparation. Besides, some others are now
giving you a run for the money.

You have pictured the idylic nature of winter camping - very pure and
very quiet.

I hope you can bring some of that serenity to whatever is happening.
Vacations from caregiving are mandatory - I recall spelling my dad for
a week and did not know how he did it as long as he did. It was also
when my sister and I made the decision that dad needed full relief or
he would die first - it was that simple. Best

great sleuthing Kristin! I knew I liked Fred for some reason ... is the same age

Couldn't do your own research, huh.

The truth is revealed nearly.

I shall be up a bit, I fear in a bit over and hour. But a bit for
Thanksgiving week ain't bad.

The question is do I take the second wardrobe and provide a control
for next week's up week with more clothes???
