I'm sitting in a tight seat way up in the upper deck enjoying the show and as I watch the show I begin to think that this may be the last time that I ever see this person perform. I'm not getting any younger and the performer now in his seventy's isn't either. How many more tours will he do. The last time I saw him was twenty years ago. Is he going to be touring when he is ninety?

When your young you have so many chances to do things over. Right the wrongs, relive past glories, but as you get older those opportunities diminish. It is simple arithmetic.

It made me think of the things that I may never do again because of age, circumstance or opportunity.

I will never need to buy another t shirt.

Climb Mt Washington

Ride another century...( that is a one day 100 mile bike ride)

Put another roof on my house

Buy another new car

Buy another tie

But as there are many things that because of time and circumstance that I may never do there are some things that I have never done but may try for the first time.

I learning to play the guitar (finally...although I may never get beyond a few notes it is fun trying)

I am gonna finish writing a short story

I did build a deck (pergola...lol)

I'm learning to cook on my own.

I'm gonna try surfing soon

and some other things like clamming,juggling, bag piping, and growing a tomato.

Ok ...never say never....

There is always time to learn something new
