Holy Crap! I'm turning 60 tomorrow.

It seems like I was 20 yesterday afternoon. Well, they say time flies when you're having fun, and it's just a number. Happy New Year everyone.

As Y2K approached, I thought about how old 58 would be. That was almost 15 years ago now. Make good use of the years coming. They will fly by faster than you can imagine.

Years ago I said: I'll give up single track dirt biking in the Mtns when I'm 50 and give up the Dual Sport dirt biking when I hit 60.

I'm now 63 and still ride the goat trails in the Mountains........

In the largest snowmobile club in the PNW - Got the award for "Most Miles" last year...."Member of the Year" the previous year........

Get out and do it while you can I say............

I'll be 50 in February... and I can still remember my high school shenanigans.
So many good things have happened! I can only say I'm blessed.

I'm looking forward to the next 30 odd years! Happy birthday for tomorrow.

This might be worth a read...

I'll be 57 in four days it's just a number you make of it what you will. I have known people that were 25 that were old and I've known people 75 that were young. Happy Birthday !

Happy Birthday Dave. It is has been researched that if you are healthy at 60 then you have a 50% chance of reaching 90. I don't know if that is a good thing!

Happy birthday!

I once read that in the way that we perceive time passing from when we are young children to adulthood, we are actually middle aged when we are in our early twenties....
