Larry I know what you are saying about slowing down when you turn 50. When I was young there weren't enough hours in a day. I worked hard & I mean real hard ALL THE TIME.

That was a first for me & I can't even guess how many yards of cement I have poured in my lifetime. I guess I have reached a threshold in my life where I can say it is OK to let the younger ones do some of this work. I also laugh to myself & say they will get old to someday.
