I made my 58th orbit back in March.  
 
I don't feel it (most of the time . . . . ) and truly think that this is the best time of my life.  That manic, young man's hormone-induced hurry up has passed, what a relief.  I've lived some, seen some more, learned patience (now THAT's amazing), earned a little grace, and like myself most of the time.  EVERYTHING is NOT a big deal any more. Been through enough storms to appreciate sunshine a great deal more than ever.
In love for the last time with a keeper.  Got the motorcycle / license.  Can keep my playing at arm's length, and enjoy the retirement from that rat race.  Sound better than ever in the living room, where I should have stayed.  Re-lit the photo fire with pixels instead of Velvia (which I still miss).  Becoming a better than average cook.  I'm comfortable in my own skin, quite an interesting development, and wholly unexpected.  Never was before . . .
 
Anyway, Terry, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, and I hope you are comfortably easing into Old Geezer-dom like yours truly ! !  
 
All the Best,

Ah, Velvia! It's like the tube amp of film. I worked at a pro lab here in Boulder for a number of years for some of the top nature photogs. It was like National Geographic every day, plus I got to play with pushing and pulling and generally having fun with my own film. Some weeks I almost had to pay them! But I digress. Happy, happy to all!

Terry comfortably easing into Old Geezer-dom ?  hah!  he's screaming round the Yorkshire dales on a monster of a sports bike. Wouldn't be surprised to see him competing in the isle of Mann TT someday :-)

Well, you can certainly be a FAST Old Geezer:  I watched McGuinness win the Senior TT, and if it's good enough for him, I would look mighty cool on a FireBlade (or a CB1000RR on this side of the pond).  As far as Geezers, don't think Kenny Roberts has slowed down much . . . . and certainly not Ago !
