Show of hands, how many old guys still doing manual labor here ?

48, still bustin it out every day, but a little bit sore sometimes I was just talking with my ex brother in law this am. He is also my age, and a roofer. Guy is in super good shape, but says he is feeling it also. Starting to get some arthritis in his hands, sore back some mornings, all the normal stuff.
Generally, I feel pretty good, and could still probably work some younger guys into submission, but I can also tell , that I am no longer 25 . I always feel best after a few hard days work for some reason.
I sometimes wonder how long I can go this hard . I've got a few buddies who bailed out , and took a desk job , or moved into sales.
I know Baz has got a few years on me, and still out there doing it. Any of you go hard till retirement age ?
