Am 71 today....

Certainly don't have the energy that I had at 60 but have to work with what I have.
Had a great visit with Richard/Motion and Wayner at McBride BC. Drove about six hours there and six back in my Miata in two days. There was so much smoke from the forest fires there that you could not see above the base of the mountains. Must have been disappointing for the tourists.

We discussed what a great forum and collection of members we have here. I imagine there is not much or minimal wifi signal where Wayne and Richard are now.

Cheers, Guy

Well you certainly have "recycled 60" successfully haven't you? Happy Birthday bro, I'm just a handful behind you.

I swung by my uncle's place last week, he just turned 90 and is spry as he ever was.

I was told 56 years old is young, so I feel better now.

Therefore 71 really isn't that old.

Live on, and if you are not spry, pretend to be in short spurts in front of company - it cheers them up.

Happy birthday to one of the good "guys"...

My oldest brother turned the big 7-0 on Saturday.

You got him beat, Guy!

Hey, happy birthday !! Here's wishing you many more healthy & enjoyable years. I hit the mid 70s mark on my last BD, and I'd definitely rather go backwards.

Good for you, Guy. Stay healthy.
I'll be 73 in Dec. Amazing how slow I've become...compared to just a year ago.

Happy birthday Guy. Not far behind you, turn 71 on the 23rd of this month. Feel great, still wrenching on my cars and driving my 996 Cab on a regular basis. Enjoy your day, looks like you already have! Best to you, Bob

"Whippersnapper" May you have many more - you have a promising hockey team to help you through those cold winter nights in big "E". Happy Birthday Guy

Cheers
