Today… I passed thru the 60’s for the SECOND TIME !!!

Image may contain: 5 peopleWhile this may seem VERY STRANGE.. In June of 1960.. I turned THIRTEEN … the above picture  was from the 8th grade “safety patrol”.. I am second row… third from right…  Thanks to my old time friend… standing to my immediate left… he saved all of these – some believe – embarrassing pictures and posts them on my Face Book page … but his birthday was 8 days ago !!! So he is actually OLDER than me 🙂  Only time that was significant is when we could get our driver’s licenses.

I capped off the 60’s by marrying my wife in June 1969 and  graduating from college in May 1970.

So today I turn 70’s and thus my travel thru the 60’s again… this time as a SENIOR CITIZEN.. rather than a TEENAGER

Both decades had their challenges… some I wish to remember and celebrate and others … I would rather forget 🙁

As I enter my EIGHTH decade on this earth quoting…  the movie character from Galaxy Quest…  Jason Nesmith  (Tim Allen) :Never give-up, never surrender.
