Today’s Message is: “Getting Older Day!” Why Not?


“Age will never impact a leader’s willingness to step up, issues orders and provide those who deserve it with recognition. Some may get set in their ways, but others will learn through their experiences and will provide great wisdom. There is no perfect age to be a successful leader. Every leader is unique no matter their age!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

I will miss the foliage, in a few weeks until next Spring, but that is part of the circle of life on this Blue Marble... Wishing you all a fantastic Day!!!
