Well thanks efferbuddy for the good wishes.
Riding would have been cool but today the weather gods are just not cooperating.. cloudy, windy, with a high of 50 degrees.
Oh well.. I suppose that's the way of it.
It has been a great life and I have been very fortunate in many ways. Getting older ain't so bad... I was tired of being 50 years old anyway.. time to move on to 51.
