I knew I was getting old, when I was getting old.
After reading about Chapman and others, I'm grateful for it.
all the best,

I know I am getting old when

1. I scratch an itch and get a cramp.
2. I can't see what I am trying to read until I re-adjust the range at which I am viewing.
3. Kids in their 20s keep looking younger and younger.

These things happen frequently.

I am working with my son and a friend on his Eagle Scout project. It's hard labor, lots of augering holes and shoveling gravel. That has made me feel old to a degree, but even my 17 year old is sore after a hard day at it. The other day, I was talking to his friend who was lamenting how old his grandfather was...which is 8 years older than I am.

When we're getting ready for our annual fantasy football league called "Hall of Fame".

This year, it's HOF: Year 11.

That's old..

When I have to use my ever-increasing-present reading glasses to read the Factory line on T206 Sweet Caporal and Piedmont cards.... Bummer.
