Making 60 and retired just a bit badass! Mrs. Lowangle did well. Glad you’re doing well Allen.

I'm pushin 63 Bob, but I'm still very thankful to be in this position and still have my health. Hopefully you aren't too far off. This is what we've been practicing all these hobbies for.

This is the last one of me for a while, I promise.

This was 30 years ago this month. Dry powder on Sunburst, Turnagain pass, Ak.

Karhu 210 XCD-GTs with leather boots. If you look close you can see my ski tip on the surface of the snow.

I was wearing the same hat as in the above photo.
