Singin' Sue 71615 Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 When we started SASS...we were considered 'the young' ones. We were in our early 40's. Those 20+ were kids!!! Shanley and I spoke about the age of our close friends...and majority are 10 years older!! Made me question... We are 58...how many SASS members do we have in a 10yr range of our age???

Finagler 6853 Life Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 I'm still hobbling around. I think I joined back in the 90s. That was the stone age for some.
bgavin Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 I'm age 70 and just getting started. Many of our social group are 15~20 years older.
Finagler 6853 Life Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 Yup, I checked. Member since 95. 65 going on 28. My motto is, you are never too old to have a happy childhood. It is all up to you.
Crazy Gun Barney, SASS #2428 Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 I was in my early 20's when I signed up. Gonna be 51 this summer.
Wrangler Bob Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 83 this August; joined in 2019 and I'm having fun. Still a "newbie", lots to learn but still having fun.

Had one six month break when I ended up in a job that took all of my time and all I could borrow.
Happy Jack, SASS #20451 Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 Sue, Copper Queen and I have at least 20 years senior on you two kids.
Blackwater 53393 Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 I’m there, but just barely!! 68 earlier this year.

Eyesa Horg Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 I'll be 67 the end of the month and Ellie will be 66 in October. Definitly not feeling quite so young anymore, but CAS gives a lot of fun. Used to be the motorcycle, but bad shoulder has cramped that along with Ellie's shingles in her left thigh for the last 14 years. Just gotta keep !
Dirty Dog Doug Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 63 here but I can pass for 75 i started shooting Sass 4 years ago too late too the game and love it

Eyesa Horg Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 Especially when we wake up in the morning. "What the heck did I do that yesterday, it didn't hurt when I went to bed!"

(Beats the 15 bags the prior year...we had not done it while dad was living) We did "Green Up Day" Saturday. Climbing up and down the bank along our road frontage, about 3/4 of a mile. It's amazing how my legs and knees still feel! Also amazing how far litterbug scums can throw a beer can! Fully concur with the raking deal!

I am sure they were tossed in the snow...but still. I actually feel better, less achey while up there...bet I'll lose weight too!!@
