When do we get old

Every now and then I have a conversation with 16 year old me.

We're still good.

One thing that really reminds me I'm not a spring chicken any more- I used to really enjoy running around in the woods.

I don't have the opportunities like I used to due to where I live (the woods in FL are mostly swamps), and when I do have occasion, I just have to remember that I can't go about things the same way I did when I was 30 years younger.

I can still get to the same places, just have to be more aware of balance and range of motion.

Speaking of being 16, back then I used to say "when I'm 80, you can still find me sitting on the porch drinking a beer and playing the guitar".

So far, so good.
