Well my friends I reckon I'm now offically old. This past Thursday I attended my daughters US Air Force retirement ceremony. I remember clearly driving her to the AFEES Station and saying good by. Where did the past 26 years go?

Not sure how to respond to this thread. The past 26-years are now memories. Time and age wait for no man but the journey continues.

Both congratulations and thank you to your daughter. You may be getting old but it sure beats the alternative.

Bill, if you can still remember clearly, you have one up on the Commander-in-Chief!! Age can have its "ups" as well. Iowa DNR says I'm finally old enough to use my X-bow this year without the need of a doctor's excuse.

Billc, congratulations and it is much better to get old than to die young. Don't know how old you are, but you are as young as you feel.

And what a blessing to have made it this far! Here's to all our friends who didn't and didn't make all these great memories!

Thanks for all of the well wishes and things to look forward to on future trips around the sun. I will be completing my 69th trip in September.

And my 63rd. in April. But have a wonderful time getting there at a little over 66,000 miles an hour!

Tell me your age and I'll tell you mine, chuckle. Shortly I will be 68, pumped full of meds and still trekking around the sun. No intentions of slamming on the brakes. With my luck I would get a real nose bleed that would ruin my day, chuckle.
