I was talking to my 16 year old about how much has changed in my professional life that he would never understand: needing quarters for the phone booth in the Capitol, have a "car" phone but never using because it cost so much, cell phones as big as a "brick", memory typewriters with carbon copies for filing, etc. We are getting older, but I think we have adapted maybe better than our folks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7411958894593823280.post-28761756585578934892012-04-10T01:28:23.037+03:002012-04-10T01:28:23.037+03:00Enjoyed reading your latest post….

It is indeed wonderful that we have made advances, far reaching from those who journey we relate to during the Seder. What would we have done, with a broken hip or arthritic knees in years past.<br /><br />In any case, keep your blog coming…. and take care of those knees…Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7411958894593823280.post-91138257557027424112012-04-10T01:24:33.296+03:002012-04-10T01:24:33.296+03:00thanks for rubbing it in.....how much good skiing ...thanks for rubbing it in.....how much good skiing can one man have in a single year?????Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7411958894593823280.post-86407277315988593272012-04-10T01:23:43.631+03:002012-04-10T01:23:43.631+03:00the skiing sounds great

So I probably didn't give skiing as much of a shot as I might have. One bad experience threw my off on it, I guess.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7411958894593823280.post-9640616270609419982012-04-10T01:21:43.555+03:002012-04-10T01:21:43.555+03:00Regarding skiing as a senior, my barber is at leas...Regarding skiing as a senior, my barber is at least 85 and he only stopped downhill maybe 10 years ago, perhaps less. He used to complain that the late Alex Cushing, former owner of Squaw Valley, used to make seniors climb a narrow flight of stairs to get their reduced price tickets- IN SKI BOOTS! I figured that he hoped they would fall on the way down and save himself the discount.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7411958894593823280.post-41808196910946360442012-04-06T09:02:14.363+03:002012-04-06T09:02:14.363+03:00OK Alan, I was an avid skier should you remember....OK Alan, I was an avid skier should you remember. Skied Sugar Bowl too, but my favorite place was Heavenly. Used to ski 20 to 30 days a year. At age 65, I just walk for exercise. Try to walk 4 miles a day along the beach. I do have to take Aleve daily also to relieve arthritis pain. It really works. OK. we get old, but what's wrong with taking the discount? I take it when I go to the movies. Hope all is well with you and Dana and your children. AllenAllen Erlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05657102182707098327noreply@blogger.com
