Here's a quote, from Gary, that pretty much sums up my life right now.


"There comes a time, and I knew full well when that time came, that you come to the stark realization that your mind keeps making appointments your body cannot possibly keep. There are lots of other neat things in this world to explore, so get out there and enjoy what little time you have remaining in your life. As an old friend once said "Life is like a roll of toilet paper - the closer you get to the end of the roll, the faster it comes off." He hit the nail on the head!"


For me, this isn't just about performing....though I've done that live since I was 12 and am now 68.

I've also been a wildlife photographer...published... and a high school/college teacher...as well as working in industry as a mgr.

My brain says...no problem, keep on going...but my body?...well that's another thing.

I have been trying to teach what I know to the next generation....students and grandkids...thing is if it don't work on an iPhone or can't be taught in a minute or less...we'll you get the idea.
