This one tears me up... Even at 127, that’s way too young. The coolest dude ever. R.I.P. Mr. Redbone.

I’ve been better. But I am making it. I’ve been dealing with some pretty severe issues with my back. Five surgeries in the last four years and one more scheduled in July. I read the forums to try and keep up with everyone. I hope all is well with you and your family. |

My kids are grown, mom is aging and not gracefully anymore. I miss our Mobile adventures and wonderful herfs of days gone by.
