I guess the guitar, with my big meat hooks the mandolin is hard for me to chord....but I try.

You and my good friend John (and plenty of others). John is as hooked on guitars as I am on knives. It's just a guess but I estimate he's creeping up on 100 now. The older he gets the worse it gets (does that sound familar?).

John, I'm sure you're fit as a fiddle, healthy as a horse. Keep it up Bud.

I'm not sure if that is an asset or a liability Georgi! Sometimes I feel like Methuselah(sp?). Hope all is well with you my friend.

Methuselah is the grandfather of Noah, who is the father of Shem, who is the father of Ziezi, from whom the Bulgarians are descended!
So we are relatives!

Heading down to the barn to patch a fence with my hitch hiker.

Nice picture, Wade.

Hey y'all, Bro. Wade posted the wrong picture!
That's some old dude with a gray beard driving his Ford tractor.
Well, maybe it's him after all!
Great picture, my friend!

What you call gray my sister-in-law calls “sparkles”! lol

I call it 3 boys, a church, and a bunch of high school students! lol.

I picked up some new shades the other day while on an ammo run. I had to take a selfie to show precious.

I hope precious was pleased. The frames look good. Are they camouflaged? Can't quite make out the print on the frames.

Come to think of it, from about 10 feet, all us old knifers look alike!! J.O'.

She was. I did good for once!

They’re Oakley brand and the model is Double Blade (fitting for a knife forum) and yes, the frames are camo. This is my first pair ever of “good” sunglasses. I always thought it was a bunch of hoopla until I looked through a pair of someone else’s a few days ago. I have eye issues (I have one and a half good eyes) and the contrast and brightness was amazing. So I bit the bullet and got me a pair.

You mean suave and debonair?

I’m 44 and I’ve earned every one of them gray chin whiskers. lol. The beard went gray long before my hair started getting gray. It’s kind of a joke, on momma’s side of the family all my cousins were slick on top by their late 20’s. My brother and I held on to our hair longer than any of them.

Mine is getting thinner the last couple of years. But my two year younger brother is just about 75% gray. It’s odd how that all works.
