I like AP math; 57*12 (yesterday) and I've been climbing for 50 years.

Dang! That was YOU!
There were few your equal, Park Rat, and none better-looking.
Please, take it as a compliment from a fellow rodent that I was a lurking leerer, along with the rest...
Man-oh-man! The prize filly.
Batso was a lucky so-and-so, having you for a friend, all I gotta say.

I'm secure enough in my heterosexuality to know that if I was a pole smoker, I'd be sniffing up CragMans tree....
^^^^ That did not come out just right....

So numbers.....they are important in our culture. But the older I get the more I want to be Tibetan where you are only a day, not a year when you are born. (At least I heard this applies to the Sherpa's.)
I guess I am old now because I get treated with respect. But seriously, I'd rather be cursed and reviled. :D I feel great, but the wrinkles and spots are the true measure of where I am at.
The good news is I climbed my first 5.10a this summer in Tuolumne (only one pitch). So I guess the best is yet to come. I love life and all of yo here.
Enjoying it: One day at a time, one step at a time, with Peace, Patience and Perseverance. (and remembering Dan-O my man who taught me so much)

Old enough for the Geezer Pass, which I love, but young enough to be asked for my ID every time I try to use it. I love the $10 camping fee.
In fact on the day I was eligible we drove to Yosemite, bought it and did the photo stuff. I'm very happy with it.
Wow…Lynnie, you go girrrrrlll.
Sully, Adipose tissue on you??? Maybe your ear lobe.

Lynne, you do look Norwegian, ya know!
It could be arranged, though not by moi, I assure you.

As far as I can see, nobody claims to be older than sheeit.
Nor, thankfully, old and in the way.
