Re: [RC] [RC] ...getting older - SturmRanch

Amen to that!  At age 63, I went in one single morning from being able to lift my 105  lb disabled daughter to having to think about whether I could get my saddle up on a 14.3 hand horse.
 
I had worked with a group of guys who had various kinds of back "issues" and did have the sense to be glad I was so strong, but one duck and spin on a cool fall morning and I was taking a ride on a backboard.
 
Take care of your backs!
 
Nancy Sturm - just lifted a 100 lb foster child from her swing to her wheelchair - things really are better than they were a year ago.
