Today is Tell a Story Day !  and it’s Monday and I’m moving over from The Quilt Ladies Site: a classic from 6-29-2009.
Yes, I have been doing this for WAY too long, that too has been a discussion going on for a bit….but for another day. Here is

OLD Ladies ROCK – A Bike Story and Aging 
Old ladies ROCK, a bike story
Well, I’m going to have to face the fact; I’M OLD. I have gone kicking and screaming (and Laughing) into middle age but yesterday
was the end all of end all.
We volunteered at a Triathlon in Des Moines, IA, it’s the swim, bike, run thing and we were bike marshall’s and I loved it. Have a chair and cheer the riders on. I loved it, until….
As we (Sister-in-law #2) cheered on, one of the female riders said,
“OLD LADIES ROCK”
I haven’t stopped laughing yet.
I know I (we) maybe not be riding, swimmer or running in spandex,
I know the hair maybe a bit gray, but an OLD lady.
I know at the age of 20, 51 is old, but please, OLD. Neither one of us have a cane, a walker or knit, well, I do quilt? Anyway, I’m claiming my 50’s ! I thought the 50’s, are the new 30’s. Will someone please tell, the 20 year old this !
Anyway here’s some pictures of the day,
