I had a birthday recently. Another number clicked over on the old odometer! Doesn't matter which one, except to say that I haven't seen 50 in quite a while. My wife got me a liitle pineapple uke for a gift, and I've been fooling around with it every day since. Learning a new instrument keeps your mind (and fingers) nimble. Maybe I'll take up mandolin next!
