I Don't Feel Like An Old Person

I am 60 years old. When my mother was 60 I thought she was old. When my Grandmothers were 60 I really thought they were old. I guess you never think it will happen to you and when it does you just don't believe it.

Maybe it is because everything around me is ancient. Take a look a my two story brick smokehouse that is behind my home.  Built in 1848 to process the family's meat by building a fire in the fireplace to smoke the meat. Recently I added wrought iron shutters. I was taking pictures of these shutters to sell on my web site A Rustic Garden and I couldn't take them down. Granted they are a little fancy for my old brick smokehouse but I like mixing styles. I am going to keep them for me.

Okay back to being old... I guess being old is relative to what you are comparing it to.
