Was thinking about the demographics of Barthmobile, (that's what you do when you're my age).
80+
70 to 80
60 to 70
50 to 60
less than 50
I'm 81. I think Carl Flack may be out oldest member at 90. Carl's so old we should make a special category for him

Jim & Tere
You are a tad bit late. I'm well on my way to 92,but I still have ALL my silver gray hair and lots of memories.....Carl

Are the two of you going to tell us what category you fit in? OTOH, I was told you never ask a woman her age Maybe this can be sort of a poll.
Tere is 60. I'll keep a tally and report the results.
Jim

I guess I'm catching up to Carl, well on my way to 89 and have most of my hair also.

Wow! Carl,

Where and why did all those years go by so fast???

I only feel & act what my mind tells me, however I know I must be older than 42.

Let the good times roll on. Maybe the expression "keep on trucking" fits us all.

So I lost a lot of hair, around age 45 still have a bit left but it is mostly light grey, sometimes I would like it back!! You guys with a full head are fortunate!!

And the number is ?? Inquiring minds would like to know.

The older we get the less of a percentage a day of your life becomes.

It can be a mixed blessing! As one with plenty of hair, sometimes my brain overheats and people tell me I act weird.
(That's my story anyway)...

Have Barth, will travel, soon

At this point I still cannot call myself a Barthmobiler, though I have belonged to this group sense 2012. And have been searching for the perfect coach sense then. (Not really that picky, just have to find the one you like and can pay for.)

I certainly can relate to the aging part though. The hair thing I can't complain about. I have two brothers, one 13 months my senior and one five years my junior. Both bald from the're early twenties..
I'm now 66 and still have a decent head of hair. Thinning on top but still there.

As Marvin+Doris have stated, "getting old beats the alternative". Just before I joined Barthmobile I had been diagnosed with Bladder Caner, and a year later was down sized at the company I worked for. But it's all good. We all live on. I will never complain because my neighbor in all probability is worse off than I am.

The Cancer treatments were successful to this point. And I have been able to save some money to go toward the purchase of my perfect Barth. Aging or not, who has it better?

Jim it is 30 years later now! Thankful for every day!!! Specially when Nose is running well!!

Steve hair must have been a good thing for you, as you are one of the brightest stars in the sky!!!

So far, only 5 Barthmobilers have been courageous (or brave, or boastful, or silly, or forthright, etc ) to tell us their age. One is over 90, one is over 80, one is between 60 and 70, and one is less than 50.
Inquiring minds would like to know

Jim--over 80

74 and hoping to see a few more. It has been a hell of a run so far.

Nick

75 in April of 2019, Nose is 37....
