We were down in Mammoth “spring skiing” a couple of years ago and ran into Dave and Klaus Obermeyer ( the ski clothing mfr) in the restaurant at the Angle Station. They were in for lunch, but they were skiing, and both of them were well into their 90’s at that time. Just goes to show you what good genes and a passion for something does to extend your useful life. Just too bad it fails, in the vast majority of cases, to extend to politicians. Just wished that most of them died young, because it’s unseemly for some 85 year old female cur like Dianne Feinstein to be able to continue to try and impose her will on the rest of us.

The aging process is beginning to get to me. In just the last couple of years I've been stressed with accepting less physical ability.

I'm going stir crazy watching it snow and not being able to ski because of a torn meniscus. The link you sent said McCoy quit skiing because of a replacement and I've been thinking of having it done. Now, I'm rethinking because of other comments I've read.

I played golf all summer thanks to a special brace from the VA. But looking up at the mountain and not being able to go is torture. Especially now that more mountains are free for seniors.
