As you my know, each month, normally on the first Tuesday of the month, I write a column for the Opelika Auburn News. This month some thoughts about turning sixty. I’ll start it here, but you’ll need to follow the link to read the whole thing on the OA News website!
I thought with Massachusetts in the news the past few weeks, I’d discuss my connection with the state. I had planned to write about a book I recently bought: 60 Things To Do When You Turn 60. But instead as I turn 60 I thought I’d let Mom know I’m doing fine.
Not sure I’ve told the story here. I was adopted at birth, maybe had a twin brother and ended up with a Jewish Family in Spartanburg, S.C. Abortion wasn’t one of the things done at that time in our U.S. history. Read the whole story on the OA News Website – Click Here!

Happy birthday, Jerry. I passed that milestone five, well nearly six, years ago. It ain’t bad once you get used to it. The greatest thing is that I lived until retirement.

I’m curious about the book you mentioned – 60 Things to Do when you turn 60. I’d rather read one titled “60 Things to Eat..” or “60 Movies to Watch..”, etc. You’ve obviously got more energy than most!
