Oh wow

We have noticed the same thing. I think some people just stop doing things and it makes them age faster. Not our philosophy at all. But I do like my summer days on the deck.

Good morning, everyone. Thanks for the coffee. Guess I'll get out and find something to do. There's always something needs mowed or some brush that needs to be cut back. Seems like this year the tree limbs and scrub brush went crazy.

Nature or nurture? Genetics plays a big part, but eating right and keeping active both mentally and physically may play an even greater role. I really do believe in 'use it or lose it'.
