I'm in great shape for the shape I'm in! I can go about 4 hours them I start feeling all 77 years, got a knee brace 20 plus years ago --keeps the surgeon away. Killed and butchered our Elk still trap about everything I can catch just not too many at once! I keep looking ahead!

I am 79+. Almost deaf. Candidate for cochlear implant. Had an MRI of my ear canals today. Got a bum knee replacement so I cannot walk very far. Almost severed an index finger with a radial saw. Now it "kills" me during cold weather. Had kidney and colon cancer surgeries. Had five rotator shoulder surgeries. Had a heart ablation. Deer hunt every year. Taken at least one deer each year for 53 seasons. About guit drinking - it bothers my gout. Getting old is tough.

I am going to keep chugging. Got my name on a list at a retirement community being built soon.

Depends on what group I’m with I can be the youngest or the oldest one depending on the groups. Either way I can keep up with all of them the younger ones make it easy for me working ain’t their thing.


Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!
