The older you get

Getting old is wonderful.

Feeling old is not.

Getting old is a privilege many never experience.

It also comes with a personal responsibility to keep learning, doing, and refining what we hold on to and what we let go of.

Memories are nice, but never let them be bigger than your dreams.

Only a glimpse of amazing

Rising Sun Motor Inn room
He was 12 on his first Red Bus Tour. And almost 16 on his second yesterday.

 

It was 1973 and roughly 40 Scouts plus chaperones arrived at Glacier National Park early evening and checked into Swiftcurrent Motor Inn, had dinner and went to bed. After breakfast the next morning, we drove an hour around the southern Park border to Lake McDonald Lodge. It was there i boarded and enjoyed my first Red Bus tour.

That first time, in 1973, i was 14 and all my fellow Red Bus tour passengers were fellow Boy Scouts from my Central Pennsylvania Council.

Yesterday (Aug 1, 2016) was my third tour.

Recap from Sunday 07.31…6-hr Red Bus tour, lunch at Lake McDonald Lodge, Henry driver, dinner at St Mary Lodge, look at shops, ice cream at Two Dog Flats

The key to aging is to anticipate, then plan

The key to aging is to anticipate, then plan.

What will life be like 10, 20, 30, 40, even 50 years from now?

Do the things today that will solve for the normal and predictable aging issues.

What if we took a road trip?

Great observation
From LinkedIn yesterday.

 

In the pursuit of the unknown there’s a default solution we used to take back in college…

What if we took a road trip?

That feeling when it feels right to try a tried and true, but long abandoned strategy.

Two of my college buddies retired at 55.

That makes three of us from the group of 36.

Rick and JD would be great thought partners.

Time for a road trip?

Glacier National Park, see ya real soon.
