After more than 50 years as a loyal son of the Church I find it harder and harder to even bother to go to Mass anymore.

Have you looked at St. Benedict's Chapel in Chesapeake? (521 McCosh Drive Chesapeake, Virginia 23320). They have two TLM Masses a week, offered by FSSP. Of course, being up in the DC area, I've not actually been there, but I would wager that you would have none of the guitar-mass, feminizing touchy feely gobbledygook at an FSSP parish.

Although it might seem a lot to go out of your way, it may be well worth your while.

Just a thought.

I haven’t been there in several years, but yes I’m familiar with the Chapel. It’s actually a missionary chapel of my parish. I never made it a habit to go becasue I prefer the vernacular...I just wish there was a parish in the area that offered a more reverent Mass in the vernacular. An Anglican Use parish would be wonderful. In any case it’s probably time to look at going to St Benedict’s again...my wife actually suggested it after Mass yesterday.
