Turned 50 on 9/11...

So I did what anyone would do...took off for the Bahamas for a few days...solo

Not the best time of the year to go there but my Burfday don't fall on the peak...

Had a good, good time...(no pics, sorry dudes) but sure did have fun.

50 is the new .... oh heck, its old but not too

50 y/o seems just fine to me, so far. No complaints.

9/11 is my mom's birthday also, she turned 90 and she is 90, not doing the best but she is still with us.

50 is the new 30, party on

I would vote for a sailboat, your RV on the water.

Was on a 77' ferrohull Ketch...oh boy...who would have thought you could make such a nice boat outa cement! They lived on it, would go from Maine to SD through the Panama canal and would swing into the Carib for a jolly ol time.

I'll be fifty in a few months. While some say 50 is the new 30, man sometimes I feel a lot older than 50....
